Wise Dan is running in the Classic?? I would say the chances of that are about zero percent. They will do what they always do.

Owner said no on NBC Sports. Randy, Jerry, etc. couldn't help but laugh at the definitiveness of it. It was like 'well, I guess that slams that door shut' right after Charlie dangled the carrot that he might.

Re: Wise Dan running in the Classic or on any dirt race... LoPresti has always seemed more "sporting" and willing to put Dan out there. Mr Fink, however, is a man who doesn't have much left in the tank and would rather watch his best horse excel at the same game and keep on winning. No shame in it, but it would be more fun as a fan to watch Dan lose a close one in the dirt at 1 1/4 than win again at 1 on the turf.

With Close Hatches loss, what does the top female vote look like now?
