New York June 25 Special to The Washington Post reports the Jockey Club stewards advised Mars Cassidy he may use either the flat-footed start or the walk-up system starting tomorrow.

The move aims to give Cassidy better starts and a fairer chance for all horses, though previous attempts at walk-up started failed against fast breakers. The decision signals a shift to a more level field at the barrier and public satisfaction. Lady Winifred was also listed as an added starter in the Zephyr Stakes with Frederick Johnson securing a $6,000 purse stake.
