I thought it was a fantastic ride from Ryan. It was the filly's first run back after a lay-off and I thought she'd come on a bit for the run,. She's a classy filly, a Group 1 winner (in France), and I think her attitude really showed in the last 100 yards, she put her head out and fought it out. She's an impeccably bred filly and I've been really lucky with the American Pharoahs, he's done really well here in Europe particularly. You could see this filly's attitude in the last furlong when the going was getting tough she put her head out and fought all the way to the line, beating a very good filly. The plan was that this would be a nice stepping stone to the fillies race on Arc day (Prix de l'Opera) and that should set her up lovely for that, she's a course and distance winner already.

We think a lot of her. She had a really good run last year and she obviously has an amazing pedigree,. We couldn't ask for more, we'll see where we go now but we think she's an Oaks-type filly. She's a very big filly so we'll be managing her gently, maybe something like the Blue Wind would suit. We won't be throwing her in at the deep end, we'll take baby steps with her. She really is huge, in a way she's nearly too big and we'll have to manage her correctly. She hasn't done anything wrong so far anyway. I don't think she will an Epsom filly - she probably could be but I think we will look at the Curragh maybe with her but it is early days to be targeting that.
