Uncle Mo

[jasperson]

What ever you do leave Uncle Mo out of your bets. He didn't look good in the Wood and he didn't look good in his work out with Stay Thirsty. I don't know if he is still sick or he just isn't that good . I am leaving of all of my bets and advicing all my friends to do the same. My reason is because of his work with Stay Thristy he wasn't on the bit at anytime during the work out and on the run out. If you want to bet Uncle Mo then bet him in an exacta with stay Thristy because Stay Thristy will finish ahead of him. The oricle has spoken.

Me thinks the "Life at Ten" fiasco is the ONLY reason Pletch is NOT going to abuse this horse..

It was the 18 hole that did it.

It was the 18 hole that did it.
It was his nose-diving value at stud that did it, or maybe Repole's unwillingness to blow the 100K.

Swell, now a horse whose connections actually intended to run is deprived of a chance.

any also-eligibles that draw in? :confused:

No AE's in Derby, only BC is doing that (good for them).

Thanks!

I'm shocked! Shocked.:rolleyes:
there was never any doubt in my mind he that would be scratched. that they screwed someone else out of a chance to run sucks.

[JimG]

Too bad there are not ae's for the race. If I was racing czar, the Ky Derby would be limited to 14 horses, but provide for also eligibles.

i knew that UNCLE MO would be scratched on wednesday, the shocker today is that DIALED IN is not scratched. he was my original pick to win this thing, i just switched to SOLDAT. now watch DIALED IN not only run, but win! i probably just put him right infront of the camera after the race. i can't play him no matter what zito says now.

[Some_One]

So how low does Dialed In go now? 2-1?

[Tom]

Nice for the guy who was ranked 21 on the list.......never should have entered the bum in the foist place. When you have a committee of doctors looking at your horse two days out, you have a real problem.

so, Uncle Duck and R Heat both out.....nice.

Why did the hrtv handicapper still have Uncle Mo as one of favorites? They know that the horse was not right but still they had him as one of the favorites.
Were they trying to misslead the betters,or was it out of respect for the trainer?

With Albarado questionable to ride Animal Kingdom, Velasquez may get the mount.
