I'll Get Along (foaled March 11, 1992, in Kentucky) is a Thoroughbred racehorse by champion sprinter Smile and out of the stakes-winning Foolish Pleasure mare Don't Worry Bout Me, tracing tail-female to the mother of all blue hens, La Troienne. She was selected and purchased for Roy and Patricia Chapman by trainer Bob Camac for $40,000 at the 1993 Keeneland September yearling sale.
Trained by Camac, I'll Get along was a stakes winner of $277,009 but is best known as a broodmare through her mating to Elusive Quality that produced Smarty Jones, the 2004 Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner who was voted American Champion Three-Year-Old Male Horse honors.
In 2004, I'll Get Along was sold for $5,000,000 to Gaines-Gentry Thoroughbreds, then in foal with an Elusive Quality filly. At Coolmore Stud in Ireland, she was bred to Champion sire, Sadler's Wells. She has since produced a second stakes winner, the turf sprinter filly Smartys Emperoress by Holy Roman Emperor.
