SAMAREADY will push on to the $2.5 million T.J. Smith Stakes (1200m) despite her ­disappointing effort in the William Reid Stakes at Moonee Valley on Friday night.

Trainer Mick Price had the horse vetted but could find nothing wrong and she will run in Australia's richest sprint at Randwick on April 12 alongside stablemate Lankan Rupee.

Lankan Rupee yesterday firmed from $4.60 to $3.50 favourite with TAB for the race after the Hawkes stable said three-year-old gelding Notlistenin'tome would not run again this autumn after a virus.

Samaready drifted to $26 after his ninth on Friday night.

"She was ridden two or three lengths forward of where I thought she would be,'' Price said.

" I certainly didn't think she should lead and thought she should have taken up a position behind Thump.

"Regardless of all that I still thought it was a disappointing run. I wanted to see better."

Price said Samaready would be ridden quietly and then sprint home at Randwick.

"That's what she does when she performs at her best."

Lankan Rupee has continued to please Price since he completed the Oakleigh Plate -Newmarket Handicap double.

Price was pleased with the effort of Cornrow who ran on well for third behind Ghibellines in the Todman Slipper Trial which was his first run since he finished third in the Blue Diamond Stakes.

"He ran on well after being held up and if he'd got out earlier he could have challenged for second. It was a good run," he said.

Price said stablemate and Blue Diamond Stakes runner up Jabali would miss the Golden Slipper after he weakened to finish seventh in the Todman Stakes and would be spelled.
