Might have been posted elsewhere, but what was Uncle Mo's fig?

I couldn't find it because no other horse in the race had run yet either.

OK, any idea what the raw number was though?

Well, by the Beyer chart, it was faster than all the stakes. However, 5f races can vary wildly from the standard chart at Saratoga as well as many other tracks. Do a search of "Beyer Speed Chart" and you can look them up very quickly.


I just saw it posted somewhere else as a 102.

Early fig was a 102. But Beyer is consulting with PG1985 later to make sure it's correct.

He might want to consult with somebody on the Travers.

I'm not sure yet, but it won't be near 105. 100 is pushing it in my opinion.

In my opinion, he has not shown it yet. He'll be a big underlay in the BC.

I think he's very good, but I guess we'll see come BC day.

Thanks.

It was the only route so whoever makes it, it is a guess. Looking at the pace of the race, a 105 is extremely unlikely. There are lots of ways to look at the race, and given the biased track I could see giving a 105 thinking the winner ran a new top staying on the rail.

Of course, it wouldn't be a new top if Beyer hadn't changed a 109 (something like that at least) three races back for the winner to a 101.

93 or 95. Sundial.

The track was not slow yesterday and 203 and change is not too hot...Its a guess like I thought Uncle Mo was 100 and not a 110 like everyone yesterday.

The top two had career route tops of 99 and 97, and now we are asked to believe they ran a 105 at 10f with an honest to fast pace?

Since most of Zenyatta's numbers are made up what difference does it make. Its a guess. Of course they love those triple digits for G1 races so I'm sure this will be no different.

Seems to fall right in line for First Dude.

I don't think he would be my starting point for making a number yesterday, but considering the pace I would have projected him for no more than 90 yesterday, which falls right in line with the race getting about 100.

They are also checking to see if Super Saver has any other problems besides I'mnotatChurchillitis.

Not thrilled about that with DM, but he has had several hard races in a row........Hopefully Todd will change his mind.

This sucks because I really like this horse....well, at least he doesn't need surgery.
