Richard Fahey has confirmed Barefoot Lady will be supplemented for Sunday's Qipco 1000 Guineas at Newmarket.
The daughter of Footstepsinthesand, who won the Newmarket 2000 Guineas in 2005, flew home from the rear to take the Nell Gwyn Stakes at the track earlier this month and connections have decided to stump up the required £30,000 to add her to the fillies' Classic.
‘We've decided to supplement her as she's 100% and in great form at the moment, so it's worth a punt,’ said Fahey.
‘She travelled well on the better ground the other day and came home well, so conditions will be in her favour.
‘I've watched the race four or five times now and in another 50 yards she'd have won further.
‘It looks like she'll stay and she's absolutely at the top of her game now. We just hope some of the other fillies aren't.
‘There are a few questions marks about the ground with one or two of the fancied ones, so we've decided to give it a shot.’
