Buster's Ready made her Grade 1 debut a winning one Saturday afternoon at Belmont Park, drawing away to a convincing victory in the 55th renewal of the $250,000 Mother Goose. Forwardly placed out of the gate, Buster's Ready pressed Salty Strike through opening fractions of 23.55 and 47.03. Flanked by Salty Strike to her inside and stablemate R Gypsy Gold on the outside after three-quarters in 1:11.52, Buster's Ready shook clear of that pair and the late-running favorite, Joyful Victory, to prevail by 4 ¼ lengths. Her final time for the 1 1/16 miles was 1:42.44 and she returned $9.40 as the 7-2 second choice.
