| The public clamored for a match race between the two colts, and Belmont Park offered $100,000 for battle between the two thoroughbreds in May. Both owners accepted but a flare-up in Biscuits bad leg forced a cancellation, and was instead entered in the Mass Cap for June along with the Admiral. |
| Smith trained his colt to break off in a hurry, first by fashioning a starting bell to accustom him with the noise, and then by running him with top sprinters. |
| Once the colt was no longer lame, Pollard began riding him to build his own strength and to ready Biscuit for a return to racing. |
