The Paddy Twomey-trained filly was sent off 1/20 to maintain her unbeaten record in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Race at Cork, having burst onto the scene with a scintillating performance in the valuable Goffs Million on her racecourse debut last season.

The 1/20 favourite did have to be shaken up under Billy Lee to ensure she would remain unbeaten, but the daughter of Gleneagles pulled away nicely in the closing stages to score by three lengths.

Paddy Power left One Look unchanged at 10/1 for the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket in May.

"She did exactly what we were hoping she would do. We got her out, got her some exercise and education and it has gone to plan, so I'm very happy," said Twomey.

"We had the plan in our head that we were coming (regardless of the heavy ground), she settled and quickened, and it was pretty straightforward. I don't think I've trained many 1-20 shots!

"That was her first piece of work for the year, so we'll sit down and make a plan. We have a couple of more fillies to run, so we will see where we go but she is in the Irish, English, French and German Guineas.

"If she runs in Newmarket (English 1000 Guineas), she would go straight there, but if she runs in Ireland, she might run again.

"She is a lovely-actioned filly, was ready to run today and I think she'll progress plenty."
