We think the world of this filly and brought to her Dubai during the winter as she likes fast ground,. She was second in a Group 2 first time out and I thought she had a real chance on World Cup night. It didn't happen for some reason, she got a bit of a bump out of the stalls. Ben said she was on the bridle but just didn't finish off. I think she was on the wrong side of the track as well. Since she's come home, her work has been good. It's hard for three-year-olds to compete in top sprints, she's four now and I was hoping she'd do something like that today. We're delighted and I think she deserves her place in the King's Stand. Even in her work, she works behind goes to the front and pulls up. I put the cheekpieces on today just to freshen her up and if she did get to the front it might help Ben. She probably didn't need them today, but it was something different to help her. Ben said she pulled up in front and as soon as Billy Lee came to her pulling up she went again. We think a lot of her and turned down a lot of money for her. It's hard to get Group 1 horses and we think we have one. Anyone who has ridden her work always thought she was a high-class filly and could be the real deal. It's a good start to the season, it's a big step up to the next level but five furlongs on fast ground at Ascot is made for her. She reminds me a little bit of Sole Power, she's very responsive. She's very relaxed in behind but if you sneeze on her she quickens up really well and does things

Ben is a top class rider and gave her a peach of a ride,. We fancied her strongly in Ascot but she probably could have done with one more run before that. She wasn't ready for that quick race. We knew coming here today that she's a filly that shows plenty of pace. We had a hood on her before because she's keen but the pace of the race was always going to help her settle today. Ben delivered her to perfection. In the sprints in Ireland sometimes they go slow, even in a sprint, and this one has bags of pace and needs pace on in front of her. When she relaxes she's got that turn of foot at the end. It didn't work in Ascot but today was always the next stepping stone, although I know it was a big step up. I saw her at 25/1 this morning and there were horses much shorter in the betting that she had beaten before. I thought she had a chance but it needed to work out like this and it worked out to perfection. She's a huge filly and what she did at two is probably a bonus. She won her maiden and a listed race. She was always going to be better at three. She's learning how to sprint and we're going to be brave with her now for the rest of the season. She's won a Group 2 so it's Group 1s all the way now.
