I don't doubt that something was wrong but the whole thing was awfully strange, even for a Pletcher-Repole episode. In the weeks leading up to the Derby everyone was raving about his appearance then all of a sudden he's 100 lbs underweight and on his death bed?

This is unrelated to your post but as good as Uncle Mo is, what they're asking him to do is a tall order. I'd be willing to bet Uncle Mo doesn't even finish the best of the 3YOs in the BCC.

Yeah, no shid man. I found that odd too about all the raves pre Derby concerning Mo.

Hell, I was still uncertain he'd made a full recovery watching his every workout and then the King's Bishop. His last workout though was a thing of beauty.

Now, on to the next part of your post. What 3yo do you possibly see finishing ahead of him in the BCC? ST?
