About
Samangu, a 5yo bay mare from Australia trained by Grahame Begg, entered the Flemington R10 Frances Tressady Stakes. She is by Written By out of Estelle and has secured five wins, highlighted by a victory on 15 March 2025 at Caulfield in the $175,000 3yo+ F&M Open Set Weight With Penalties. Punters have found her profitable; backing her throughout her career would have delivered a 20% return on investment.
