Finally on the tenth try DeSota, 6-to-5 favorite, got away in front, with last year's two-year-old champion Twilight Song and Tobaccoman William N. Reynolds' Schnapps just behind. Twilight Song broke her gait at the first turn. By the time E. Roland Harriman's Farr had taken the lead in the back stretch, the crowd of 35,000 was on its feet, cheering one of the quickest-stepping fields ever seen in a Hambletonian.

...Admiral into the best race horse in the U. S. as to turn him into a horse healthy and hale enough to race at all. As a two-year-old, War Admiral last year won three races, finished second twice, third once. Offsetting his speed and good blood he had one dangerous defect: he was delicate. Last winter, instead of growing as a two-year-old should, he showed signs of remaining the same size. A specially knitted pommel cloth was by no means the only coddling that War Admiral got.
