GI Shadwell Turf Mile ($1 million) [1m (T)] Winner: Wise Dan, g, 7 by Wiseman's Ferry
9th at KEE GI Shadwell Turf Mile ($1 million) [1m (T)] Winner: Wise Dan, g, 7 by Wiseman's Ferry
WISE DAN (g, 7, Wiseman’s Ferry--Lisa Danielle, by Wolf Power {SAf}) was completely unprepared for the start here, but it didn’t seem to matter as the two-time Horse of the Year called on his class in the stretch to catapult past his rivals for an ultimately snug 1 1/2-length tally. Longshot Grand Arch (Arch) was second over Sayaad (Street Sense), while second choice Seek Again (Speightstown) ran into significant traffic trouble in the lane and had to settle for sixth. Wise Dan, who returned from colic surgery last time to take Saratoga’s GII Bernard Baruch H. Aug. 30, stopped the timer in 1:35.62. This was the third Grade I victory on the day for John Velazquez, and the first $1-million purse to be offered at Keeneland. TDN

Wise Dan Out of Breeders' Cup
" Two-time Horse of the Year Wise Dan (Wiseman’s Ferry) will not compete at this year’s Breeders’ Cup championships after suffering a non-displaced fracture at the bottom of the cannon bone of his right front fetlock. “He was scheduled to breeze in a few days and [trainer] Charlie [LoPresti] checked him over to be sure he was 100%,” owner/breeder Morton Fink said in a statement released through the Breeders’ Cup. “Unfortunately, Charlie noticed some swelling in his ankle and quickly decided to X-ray him to be sure everything was all right. The X-rays identified a non-displaced "half-moon shaped" fracture of the bottom of the cannon bone in the RF fetlock. This likely occurred in his victory in the [Sept. 27] GI Shadwell [Turf] Mile. As a result, we have decided to withdraw him from the Breeders’ Cup to allow the fracture to heal. “Wise Dan has accomplished a lot in his career so far and given us endless joy,” Fink said. “We would never want to race him unless he is 100%. We thank Charlie and Amy [LoPresti] and their staff for everything they have done to get the horse where he is, and for being so conscientious that a little swelling was not overlooked. Charlie has had tough decisions to make and we are very grateful that he made them in the best interest of Wise Dan. Dr. [Larry] Bramlage recommends that we wait at least 30 days and assess his progress before we make any further decisions. He is 7-years-old, with 30 starts in his career, so we’ll let him show us what to do next.” Wise Dan won all four of his 2014 starts, returning from colic surgery in May to win the Aug. 30 GII Bernard Baruch H. He most recently overcame a slow start to win the Shadwell Turf Mile at Keeneland. On the board in 25 of 31 starts, he has won 23 times and has earnings of $7,552,920. He would have been attempting to win a third straight GI Breeders’ "
