Bio
Last Samurai broke his maiden in his second career start, a seven-furlong maiden special weight race at Churchill Downs on Sept. 24, 2020. He wore down the leaders in the Churchill Downs stretch to win by 3/4 of a length, covering the distance in 1:24.69.
In his 3-year-old debut, Last Samurai finished fifth in the Grade 2 Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn Park on Mar. 14, 2021. He earned his first stakes placing of the year a few months later, when he was second in the Grade 3 Greenwood Cup at Parx on Sept. 25.

Last Samurai earned his first stakes win at Oaklawn on Dec. 11, when he won the Poinsettia Stakes by 3/4 of a length. He rated off the pace early on, then made the lead under vigorous urging from Jon Court and got the win, going 1 1/16 miles in 1:43.70.
After two defeats in stakes races later in the Oaklawn meet, Last Samurai bounced back with an impressive victory in the Grade 2 Oaklawn Handicap at Oaklawn Park on April 23, 2022, in a 12.60-1 upset.
Last Samurai sold for $175,000 at the Ocala Breeders' Sale in March 2020. His dam (mother) is Lady Samuri, who won the 2013 Lighthouse Stakes at Monmouth Park.
