He doesn't have enough ability?

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

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?

[cmorioles]

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.

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