For me, after all these years . . . you get to my age, you need something that makes you get up in the morning and something to look forward to. This has done that for me. I can’t even express it in words. I’ve been in the horse business for 40 years and it’s a major miracle when you breed and race a horse like Wise Dan. He’s incredible. He just does not want to get beat! Three track records at three different race tracks, on two different surfaces, at two different distances. 31 career starts with 11 Grade 1 victories: one on dirt and ten on the turf, 6 time Eclipse Award winner. To some, he’s been a Horse of the Year twice, to me he’s been a Horse of a Lifetime! Unbelievable!
