About

Sam's Reward is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Nikki Gordon of Strathalbyn. He is by the stallion Valentia out of the dam Cassi Girl. To date he has recorded one win. On 4 Dec 2024 at Balaklava he claimed his biggest victory, earning the $25,000 Maiden Set Weight. Punters have found him to be a profitable runner; backing him throughout his career would have delivered a 46% return on investment.
