I was talking from simply a training standpoint, which relies significantly on the time factor. Both were off from March to late summer. Each had 2 one-turn comeback races leading up to a 10f attempt.
The rest of it you can compare in a number of ways. For example, both earned the highest BSF (119 and 118 respectively) of any 3yo that year in one of those comeback races. The big difference is that French Deputy pulled out his top Beyer in his first start back (the Jerome), while Uncle Mo unleashed his in his second (the Kelso).
French Deputy, not surprising, deflated quite a bit and got beat in his second start, a money allowance. What does that suggest for Uncle Mo in his next out (the BC Classic) following his career top?
