Chris Richardson, managing director of owner Cheveley Park Stud said, "Unfortunately, although she acts on ground with some cut in it, she doesn't like extremes and the rain we had today proved her undoing. On good to soft she is fine, but on this ground, which was similar to Deauville (where Red Bloom was beaten in a Group Two in August), she doesn't pick up. This is almost her certainly her last race and she has been a phenomenal filly, winning a Group race every year for four years."
