Was purchased by IEAH Stables and won her first start for them in the Las Virgenes Stakes at Santa Anita. Followed up with a win in the Santa Anita Oaks, but had to work hard for it. Going to the Oaks instead of the Derby now. Made her final prep in the Ashland Stakes at Keeneland and couldn't catch the leaders, finishing 3rd behind Hooh Why and Gozzip Girl. Not going to the Oaks now either, instead will get some time off.
