The four-year-old filly will go for the Group Two contest over the straight mile, formerly known as the Windsor Forest Stakes, on June 19th after making a successful reappearance at Leopardstown on Sunday. David Wachman's charge landed the Group Three Amethyst Stakes to gain some compensation for being demoted to second place after being first past the post in the Group One Matron Stakes over the same course and distance in September. "All being well she's going to go for the Duke of Cambridge at Royal Ascot. It's a mile race that suits," said Alan Cooper, racing manager for owners Flaxman Stables Ireland. "She won very nicely. David (Wachman) and Wayne (Lordan) were delighted with her. "She is a very nice filly and was a Group One winner last year only to lose the race in the stewards' room."
