After race at Curragh Sat, 1st Jul, 2023 (1st)

She has a great constitution and we were very happy with her,. The first day she ran we were surprised because she's very lazy at home, we didn't really know what to expect but she won. Then she went to Ascot and ran a lovely race, but was a little green and babyish. Obviously she learned plenty from it again. She came out of the race, lost no weight. She doesn't blow at all, it takes nothing out of her — she's very natural. Ryan gave her a lovely ride. She's not slow, she has plenty of speed. Obviously, you'd hope that she might get seven (furlongs), because she is very relaxed, but she is No Nay Never and they have a lot of natural speed and find it very easy to go very fast. We'll stay at six for a while and if we have to step up to seven we will. I don't want to be too easy on her because she has a big backside on her and I don't want her to get too big. We'll have to keep her going to a point. She's a Group 2 winner now and there are probably not too many places we'll be able to go with her. You'd be hoping she's going to be a Cheveley Park filly.
