Charles LoPresti (born September 21, 1957)[2] is an American race horse trainer best known as trainer of two-time Breeders' Cup Mile winner and Eclipse Award for Horse of the Year champion Wise Dan, who was also American Champion Older Male Horse and American Champion Male Turf Horse.[3] Unusual for modern American horse trainers, he is based year-round at Keeneland Race Course and does not move his training stable from track to track throughout the year.[2] He chooses to give his horses time off in the winter and does not race-year-round.[4]
