Gamely (February 10, 1964 – 1975) was an American Thoroughbred race horse who was voted the champion filly of her age group on three occasions.
Gambetta's dam, Rough Shod II, also produced the top filly Moccasin, the stakes-winning colt Ridan, and Lt. Stevens, also a major stakes winner.
The filly stood over 16.2 hands high, and Maloney felt she was too big to race as a two-year-old.
[1] Gamely beat males (she was also second to Dr. Fager in the 1968 Californian Stakes), carried heavy weights, and ran for three seasons in 41 races.
When she retired in her fifth year, her winnings were the highest among her sire, Bold Ruler's, offspring (later surpassed by Secretariat).
