Lopresti's done a great job with Wise Dan, I think he can do whatever he wants with him. He honestly doesn't need another HOY. With Shared Belief's great success on synthetics, and being a Candy Ride and a gelding, I wouldn't mind at some point Hollendorfer putting that one on turf just to see what he does.

Oh, I agree; I love Wise Dan and he doesn't need a third HOY, but it sounds like they are still hoping for it and planning accordingly if CC or SB wins the Classic.
If Wise Dan or Shared Belief gets it, it'll be six years since a colt won (the last HOY with testicles was Curlin).
