Can Giant's Blood be played on an uncontrolled Vamp? It doesn't specify "ready Vamp", but I wanted to check that there wasn't a DTR on it.

Nothing can be placed on an uncontrolled vamp unless card text says otherwise explicitly. Cards that say "Ready vamp" mean "controlled and not in torpor" (the definition of Ready). If a card is not thusly restricted, it may be played on a vamp in Torpor, but not on an uncontrolled vamp. (Exceptions: Action cards and Reaction cards are all restriced to "Ready" by default). So, no, you may not Ginat's Blood an uncontrolled vampire.
