Loooch Racing's Mo Dont No (Uncle Mo) is the reigning Ohio horse of the year and will look to take his batting average to .700 when in search of a second straight success in the Best of Ohio Endurance. Two-year-olds males and females will contest the Best of Ohio Juvenile and John W. Galbreath Memorial S., respectively, while the fifth event is the Best of Ohio Distaff.
