[6] LoPresti then spent time around hunters, jumpers,[4] and driving horses, only becoming interested in Thoroughbred racing as a young adult.
However, the employer there recommended him for a job with trainer Joe Cantey, who was at Belmont Park back in New York.
[2] LoPresti stayed there for two years, and in 1978 moved to Lexington, Kentucky,[6] where he worked for Ted Carr at the Domino Stud and learned about the Thoroughbred industry from the ground up.
[4] When the management of Calumet changed,[7] the husband and wife team of Charles and Amy LoPresti went out on their own.
[6] Today, the LoPrestis run a 200-acre horse facility in Lexington called Forest Lane Farm.
[6] In his spare time, LoPresti enjoys the western riding sport of team roping and working cattle with horses.
He started the colt in 2010 as a three-year-old and accumulated a record of 23 wins and earnings of over $7.5 million by the end of Wise Dan's career.
