Will's Way

History: Will's Way, the handsome bay son of Easy Goer, caused a sensation when he captured the Travers Stakes (G1) in 1996, beating Louis Quarorze and Editor's Notebook, the winners of that year's Preakness and Belmont, as well as Skip Away who'd taken second in both those Triple Crown races. In 1997 he prevailed in the Whitney Stakes (G1), beating Formal Gold nose-to-nose (with Skip Away a distant third).

Will's Way sired the multiple graded stakes winning millionaire Lion Tamer (2000). After standing in Pennsylvania for some years, Will retired to Old Friends in December 2007, where his sweet disposition instantly endeared him to all. The courageous champion is on hand to greet his friends thorough the generosity of Brookdale Farm and the Will's Way Syndicate.
