Arch is turning into a good sire. He sired Blame, and is the sire of Playa Maya who is the dam of Uncle Mo.

All week I thought of the Whitney that was approaching, I thought about the Whitney’s that I had a chance to watch. The older versions that I had to search for and YouTube, all the way to the recent ones I watched live on TV. What a great race it is, one of my favorites! I read everyone’s commentary...Read More

  • icyhotboo · Very nicely written. I believe Blame to this day doesn't get the credit he deserves. Not only did he run down QR but held off a monsterous charge by Zenyatta in the BCC. Where he belongs in the ratings I don't know or really care. His heart proved to be the largest part of him. Watching the Whitney I never thought he would get to QR who at that distance can be called formidable. · 179 days ago ·

After recuperating from an illness since April at WinStar Farm, Uncle Mo returned this week to Todd Pletcher’s stables at Saratoga, where he will begin preparations for his first race since April. If all goes well and he wins his next race, then the three-year-old field will be wide open heading int...Read More

  • tiznow · I like his style for the Derby. He should be midpack or a little closer. Should be able to get a jump on the closers and eat up the front runners who won't go 10f. Saw him yesterday and he wins on looks for sure. Literally the dark horse in the Derby. · 281 days ago ·

He is starting to show himself as a Sire. He sired Blame, one of the 3 breeders cup winners of 2010 (more than real and pluck) plus look how well archarcharch is doing

  • annmatt · With the question marks noted in this assessment, even if he won the Derby or the Preakness, how does anybody get to the Belmont with this horse? How did he come to be at the top of everyone's list? I'm such a greenie, so am curious and am learning! Just don't get how his race in the Juvenile gets him all this hype, or that there is such high expectations for this horse. He's won some money, mostly I guess from the Juvenile, so he definitely gets to run in the KY Derby. His next race will be at 1 1/8, so again, no indication if he has the stamina, but at least we get to see him around two turns. I guess April separates the men from the boys! · 330 days ago ·

Few could mount a serious case that Uncle Mo was not one of the most talented 2-year-olds American racing has seen in quite a while. He’s been impressive at six furlongs, brilliant at a mile, and dominant in the 8 ½-furlong Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (gr. I) that clinched his Eclipse championship. Detra...Read More
