Background

Bred in Kentucky by Abbott Properties, Hystericalady is the best daughter of the leading sire Distorted Humor, the sire of the dual Classic winning gelding Funny Cide. She is a daughter of 1991 Chilean champion older mare Sacramentada. A dual group I winner in her native country, Sacramentada also won the 1992 Hawthorne Handicap racing in the U.S. After producing six US-bred foals, Sacramentada returned to Chile in 2004. Sacramentada’s grandsire is Northern Dancer, therefore Hystericalady carries the blood of that sire on her top line (sire) and bottom line (dam).

Sold as a weanling at the November 2003 Keeneland Sales for $100,000, she was sold again as a yearling at the Keeneland Sales in September 2004 for $125,000, this time purchased by Jerry Hollendorfer (in partnership with Dr. George Tadaro and Tom Clark's Rancho San Miguel). Hollendorfer trained the filly at Golden Gate Fields Like Funny Cide, Hystericalady is a bright chestnut. With her win in the 2008 Delaware Handicap, she became the highest-earning horse to come from Northern California. In 2007, she lost by a neck to Ginger Punch in the Breeders' Cup Ladies Classic.

2008 Season

In the 2008 Azeri Stakes she went off as the 7-10 favorite. She won the 2008 Fleur de Lis Handicap by seven and a half lengths, giving up nine pounds to her rivals. In the 2008 Delaware Handicap she won by four lengths, tackling the distance of 10 furlongs for the first time in her career. Also in August 2008 she won the Molly Pitcher for the second time in back to back wins, taking it by nine lengths. In September 2008, running on a synthetic surface (on which her record stands at 0-for-5), she struggled the entire length of the stretch with the speed horse, Santa Teresita, as well as with the track and still finished second.

On October 24, 2008, in her second Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic, Hystericalady was in a dead heat[1] with Carriage Trail for fourth place [2] against a strong field of eight Grade I winners: Zenyatta (race day favorite at 1-2 choice), Cocoa Beach, Music Note, and Ginger Punch. Ginger Punch, who won the 2007 Distaff Cup, followed by Hystericalady, finished fifth in 2008.

Hystericalady won seven graded stakes and won 10 times on different tracks.
