Im really not sure what anyone sees in him, but OK Ill stop for now.

You understand that thinking Boys at Tosconova is not good doesn't really work if you think Uncle Mo is some kind of superstar, right?

No matter what you have to say about Boys at Tosconova, he proved to be better than basically every horse in his 2YO crop besides Uncle Mo. Whether he's going to be a legitimate factor next year remains to be seen. I'm inclined to think that there's a reason why he was handled with kid gloves.

Have I ever said UM is a superstar?

So he's not? I may not be too high on Uncle Mo's prospects in the Derby but his Juvenile was pretty damn impressive.

Im just asking if I said it? I get crazy about horses all the time, Im just curious if I have about UM yet?
I like the Mott better long term, and Pletcher has a nice one that ran second in the Keeneland stakes.

If you're talking about Santiva then yeah, I agree, he's got great credentials for the undercard turf race on Oaks day.

I can't possibly keep up with what you've said about Uncle Mo or any other horse.

I have said really nothing about UM, I think I said he is OK.
