Trainer Cherie DeVaux ruled out a possible Breeders’ Cup run in less than three weeks for She Feels Pretty, who won the Grade 1 Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup on Saturday at Keeneland.

DeVaux did say the 2024 campaign for the 3-year-old filly owned by Lael Stables might not be done.

She Feels Pretty adds blinkers, wins QEII.

“The Breeders’ Cup would be too close, but maybe a race like the American Oaks,” DeVaux said, referring to the 1 1/4-mile Grade 1 test Dec. 26 at Santa Anita.

The morning after claiming her first Keeneland Grade 1 win, DeVaux used two words to describe She Feels Pretty’s six-length victory.

“Awesome. Amazing.”

QEII runner-up Soprano is scheduled to return to England on Tuesday, according to Charles Eddery, who has overseen the filly’s preparations at Keeneland for trainer George Boughey.

“She just bumped into a good one yesterday,” Eddery said. “George was able to watch the race and was delighted with the way she ran for her first time in North America.”

Soprano, who is owned by Highclere Thoroughbred Racing, might return to the U.S. for the Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf at Del Mar on Nov. 2.

“There will be a discussion later today with George and Harry (Herbert of Highclere), and it might be on the card to go,” Eddery said. “She normally runs every three weeks and takes to racing well.”

Plans are undetermined for third-place finisher Caitlinhergrtness.

“We were very proud of her effort,” trainer Kevin Attard said of the filly who is owned by Siena Farm and WinStar Farm. “I’m going to have a discussion with Elliott (Walden of WinStar) and decide on that.”
