Mo ain't sounding as "sho" for Saturday

Repole said the final decision on running Uncle Mo in the Derby “could be made as late as Saturday mid-day,” which would be well after wagering on the Derby begins at 9:30 Friday.

Mid-day scratch on Saturday, Man, would that be a real b**** or what.

Again, this dude really needs to hush; let his trainer do the talking.

I am pretty sure that he will go

This is the horse Repole is going to 'make the favorite' a horse who might not even run?

I liked this guy at the awards in January, now i'm rethinking my position. I'll like him less if he enters a horse who doesnt plan on running.

Agreed

Well Whoopsie Doo. Looks like paying "mommy" is more fun than ever with UNCLE MO that "eats" and "poops" just like any real horse. This disturbing news will surely keep me up at night wondering if the big guy will go to the dance on Saturday afternoon. It appears that Repole thinks the race is all about Uncle Mo and the others are just there for the exercise which may or may not be the case. In any event may the "force be with you."

I read this seven times, and while I understand each of the words individually, I have no idea what it means when you put them together in sentence form.

I'm glad to know that I'm not alone here in reading comprehension

Looks like the union boy from Massachusetts (Eastie) might have some juice after all...

First thought that came to mind when I found the report.

I laughed out loud at this.

It's $25K to enter, and $25K to start, eh? So if the decision to run Uncle Mo is delayed until Saturday, Repole is still out $25K. Chump change to him I suppose, since he has the claimed ability to make his horse the chalk.

Yeah, if he's not sure, then let another horse in, don't scratch after the fact.

Hopefully Mr. Repole isn't getting too big for his britches. He should put the horse first and his ego last.

What will magically occur mid day on Saturday that would allow the anointed one to enter the gate?

A new kind of stomach medication that isn't a banned substance?

Pletcher schooled 5 horses in the paddock today and Uncle Mo wasn't one of them. Stay Thirsty and Her Smile were 2 of the 5. Might not mean anything but why wasn't he included?
