Kentucky Derby favorite Uncle Mo might be a no-go – Chicago Sun-Times
NEW YORK (AP) — Uncle Mo has a gastrointestinal infection and may be a no-go for the Kentucky Derby on May 7.

The 2-year-old champion was given blood tests on Tuesday after his poor performance, and veterinarians discovered the infection. Trainer Todd Pletcher and owner Mike Repole were told Uncle Mo could continue training while undergoing treatment.
