Perhaps the only example of a stallion standing at stud based on the state-bred stakes-winners under his second dam (the blue-collar blue hen Roberta Grump).

Has he ever! He looks stunning; like a Richard Stone Reeves painting.lurkey mclurker wrote: ↑Thu Aug 23, 2018 9:28 pmMikki Isle has matured quite nicely since leaving the track!
Here are two videos that "kind of" convey Uncle Mo's size. They were both made a year or two ago.

Uncle Mo is not only a massive but his sons are too. I saw Outwork @ WinStar this spring and boy was he ever tall. I felt so small when he turned around to look at me as I was trying to snap the pic below.

Uncle Mo and Outwork are what the internet likes to call "Absolute Units".mosieposie12 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 25, 2018 6:34 pmUncle Mo is not only a massive but his sons are too.

Advertised 16.1, but I'd be surprised if that's not enhanced a tad. I didn't see him last year, though, so it's definitely possible he's grown since.Mylute wrote: ↑Sat Aug 25, 2018 10:50 pmUncle Mo and Outwork are what the internet likes to call "Absolute Units".mosieposie12 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 25, 2018 6:34 pmUncle Mo is not only a massive but his sons are too.

I don’t remember Uncle Mo being that big when he raced, did he do a bunch of growing?
And if so, imagine how nice it would have been to see him run as a mature horse, considering his pedigree leans towards being better as he got older. He was precocious enough to be very good at 2, but I wonder if that is what ruined him.
He’s a handsome horse, for sure.

I saw Nyquist in April, he's no where near as big as his sire. I'll see if I have a pic.mariasmon wrote: ↑Sat Aug 25, 2018 11:42 pmAdvertised 16.1, but I'd be surprised if that's not enhanced a tad.
