Uncle Mo Grabbed a Quarter-Derby Trail News

The bloodhorse.com reported this morning that two year old champion Uncle Mo, grabbed a quarter coming out of the gate of the Wood Memorial. Todd Pletcher said it was only slight and shouldn't effect the colts preparations for the Kentucky derby, if he and owner Mike Repole, do indeed start they're champion in that race.

The feeling here, is that Uncle Mo was traveling well at the quarter pole and just got run down by a couple of improving three year olds, in Toby's Corner and Arthur's Tale.

Uncle Mo's connections are going to do some blood work on the colt in a few days, just to be sure it wasn't something else.
