War of Will Gets Second Chance in Pennsylvania SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 2019 WAR OF WILL GETS TDN Q&A: TEO AH KHING ON THE ROYAL ST. LUCIA TURF CLUB By Christie DeBernardis SECOND CHANCE IN China Horse Club Chairman and Founder Teo Ah Khing, an architect by trade, is spearheading a $2.6 billion project on the PENNSYLVANIA DERBY island of St. Lucia called the Pearl of the Caribbean. The centerpiece of this massive project--which will include hotels, cruise ship ports, restaurants and much more--is a racetrack known as the Royal St. Lucia Turf Club that is scheduled to open its doors Dec. 13 with a racecard highlighted by the inaugural Pitons Cup. The $150,000 race, which is the richest in the Caribbean, is modeled after the GI Pegasus World Cup with 12 slots available for purchase for $20,000 a piece. Participants will also be given an unraced 3-year-old to compete in the Helen of the West race on the opening day undercard. Taylor Made Farm and the trio of Todd Pletcher, Sol Kumin and Brad Weisbord have already been announced as slot holders for the initial Pitons Cup. The TDN=s Christie DeBernardis sat down with Teo at the Keeneland September Sale to discuss the details of St. Lucia=s official introduction to Thoroughbred racing.

Click or tap here to go straight to TDN Europe. (War Front), fresh off a satisfying GI Preakness S. success, appeared to be sitting firmly atop the 3-year-old male division. Two poor efforts since have mostly left the three-time graded stakes winner out of that conversation, but with the defection of Maximum Security (New Year=s Day), he still has a golden opportunity to recapture his championship momentum in a six- horse renewal of Saturday=s GI Pennsylvania Derby at Parx. Starting his sophomore season with convincing scores in the GIII Lecomte S. and GII Risen Star S., the bay lost his action early before finishing ninth at odds-on in the GII Louisiana Derby and was placed seventh after being interfered with by Maximum Security in the GI Kentucky Derby. Riding the rail to victory in Baltimore, he was a non-factor ninth in the GI Belmont S. and tired to finish fifth after setting the pace in the GII Jim Dandy S. when last seen July 27 at Saratoga. Passing on a try at the GI Runhappy Travers S. after that, War of Will has been working up a storm in the past month and closed out preparations for this with a half-mile bullet in :47 2/5 (1/48) Sept. 14 at Belmont.
