Uncle Mo Decision Mid-Day Saturday? (SCR appears certain)

[PatCummings]

If this isn't the quote of a losing horse's owner, before the race is even run, I don't know what is...

“If he’s healthy, than nobody beats him,” Repole said after Uncle Mo drew post 18 in the field of 20. “As a two-year-old, he could beat these three-year-olds. If he runs as good as he ran at two, then he’ll win.” From...

That's a..."my horse is better, if he's 100%, he beats everyone, no doubt, but if he isn't 100%, he can be beat."

They say 50/50, I think it's 90/10 he doesn't run. Hope he does to play against.

It seems silly to me to be concerned about how much any one individual is betting on this race. The pool is so large that any amount less than one million will be barely noticed.

Considering we're talking about a guy who is worth multiple BILLIONS of dollars, I'm going to go ahead and say he could affect (or is it effect? Where's Justin?) the pool if that's what he wanted to do.

I am hearing rumors louder than ever that he is scratching....of course the same people said Dialed In might as well....

[Danzig]

repole runs quite a risk with these comments. if the horse runs, and is healthy, and something were to go wrong-he'd be knee deep in an investigation worse than life at ten.
and anyone would be expected to scratch their horse if they aren't ready to run-why would anyone need to say so?

[Duvalier]

If he does hopefully it's decided soon...then maybe Repole can take a break from letting everyone know that if "Mo" was a 100% he'll win easily. Run him or scratch him...enough with the vague interviews. I'm sure there are numerous horses throughout the years who could've won the Derby if they were 100%.

I really thought finding someone less likable than than Ivarone would never happen. And yet along comes a spider.

Not Repole..Mark Cuban?

[rpncaine]

So what's gonna be said if Mo runs but gives a "Life at Ten" type performance? Will it take another 10 months to sort that out?

It's like a friend of mine says.....people think I have a lot of money that I don't have.

I love a good whipping

The guy's trying to buy part of the Mets, Repole's got to be at least a billionaire, no?

A-F-F-E-C-T is correct.

Multiple billions is not.
