In a racing career which began in 2010 he has won eight Graded stakes races, including victories on turf, dirt and two types of synthetic surface. Unraced as a two-year-old, Wise Dan won the Phoenix Stakes in 2010, but was well beaten when taking on top class opposition in the Breeders` Cup Sprint. In 2011 the gelding showed steady improvement, winning twice at Grade II level before winning the Grade I Clark Handicap in November. In 2012, Wise Dan won four more races, and by autumn he was the most highly-rated active racehorse in North America.
