Uncle Mo Scratched

wow. Just as well. this horse never had a shot anyway.

I guess the news was out earlier.I read Claire Novak saying it was to be announced at 8:45 AM.

I don't know why but I am pretty pissed off at Repole and Pletcher.You could tell at the post draw that they really didn't care where MO drew but were happy when Stay Thirsty drew well.Rumors were that Repole entered Uncle Mo just to get more box seats.

I heard Mo was out on the track at Churchill yesterday afternoon and looked phenomenal. This is puzzling.

No surprise here.
Pletcher has known this for a while.I think he was hopeful he might rebound but it had to have been quite obvious as I stated yesterday in the other Uncle Mo thread that it was not going to happen.
As for the owner, he has showed to horseman that he is a bush league owner.Talks about "making him the favorite by betting". What a fool.
This was nothing more than grand standing.

I heard he was climbing a lot during his gallop. My comments about training are in the I,m sticking with Uncle Mo thread.

A true horseman. A liar and a cheat.

I would be very mad if I were the connections of Ruler On Ice or Sway Away.The 2 horses that were excluded because of the pretend entry of Uncle Mo
