Selling Information
Top-class at 2 with a Timeform rating of 123, she won four of her five starts which included a 3 length victory in the G1 Blue Diamond and a 3rd behind Pierro and subsequent G1-winner Snitzerland in the G1 Golden Slipper.
Champion Female Sprinter at 3, she won the G1 Moir Stakes over 1200m by 4 lengths with G1 winners Buffering, Snitzerland, Moment Of Change, Epaulette etc. in arrears. She then ran 3rd in the G1 Lightning Stakes over 1000m.
Her first and only foal to the races to date, Exhilarates, was a $600,000 yearling and is a three-time Stakes winner including when beating the G1 Blue Diamond quinella, Lyre and Lankan Star, in the G3 Quezette Stakes over 1100m. She also ran dual G1-winning sprinter Loving Gaby to a head when 2nd in the G3 Scarborough Stakes over 1200m.
Samaready is from an active Danehill-free family with siblings IF to Justify, I Am Invincible and Exceed And Excel. Stakes-placed half sister Samartested is dam of Fastnet Rock filly which sold for $500,000 as a yearling in 2020.
“Samaready’s first foal was showing plenty of talent before sadly fatally injuring herself as a 2YO when in work with Mick Price. Her second is Exhilarates, who was always an exceptional looker and has proven to be a star. Samaready has had a little bit of bad luck over recent seasons, however she is IF again to Snitzel on an early cover. She is a mare that people can have a lot of confidence in.” - Adam White, Vinery Stud
