With jockey John Velazquez aboard, Uncle Mo worked five furlongs in a bullet 1:00.22 Tuesday morning as preparations continue for his scheduled return to racing in the Grade 1 Foxwood King's Bishop at Saratoga Race Course on August 27. Last year's 2-year-old champion was full of energy, kicking and bucking as he was led onto the Oklahoma training track by a stable pony shortly after 7:30 a.m. Proceeding to work in company with Caixa Eletronica, Uncle Mo broke off about three lengths behind the Grade 3 Westchester winner, quickly caught up and hit the wire about a length in front of his workmate. The move was the fastest of nine at the distance.
