Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 13, 2019 Journalists Share Posted September 13, 2019 The first of 12 slots in the 2019 Pitons Cup, the feature race that will mark the launch of the Royal Saint Lucia Turf Club Dec. 13. Hall of Fame trainer Todd Pletcher, owner Sol Kumin and EliTE sales and bloodstock agent Bradley Weisbord have teamed to purchase the first slot for $20,000 to guarantee their spot in the field for the $150,000 race, to be contested at a mile and an eighth on the dirt track. The endorsement of Todd, Sol and Brad in securing a slot on top of the level of enquiries we have received since announcing the Pitons Cup has been beyond expectation,” said Eden Harrington, director of the RSLTC. “Todd, Sol and Brad are leaders in the American racing industry, they have records of excellence and confirmation of their involvement in Saint Lucia is exceptionally rewarding. Not only are they passionate racing fans, they raise the standard of competition and bring great awareness of Saint Lucia with them.” The slot holders for the Pitons Cup may enter a racehorse of their choice, ownership of one of 12 selected unraced 2-year-olds currently in training in Florida (inclusive of flights to Saint Lucia and pre-training costs in the US); and an entry for that horse in the $20,000 supporting feature.
