Newmarket will stage the 1,000 Guineas on May 6.

“We will wait until we get back to Europe before running her again and look at the English 1,000 Guineas and the French equivalent..."

Easy UAE 1,000 Guineas winner Gamilati is being kept for a campaign in Europe and will be entered in the 1,000 Guineas on May 6...

The three-year-old Bernardini filly, who already holds an entry for the French 1,000 Guineas - the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches at Longchamp on May 13, was a most impressive winner of the Listed UAE equivalent by over five lengths on Tapeta at Meydan on February 3.

Simon Crisford explained on the Godolphin website: "We did not want to stretch Gamilati beyond a mile at this stage of her career which is why she is not in the UAE Oaks.

"We will wait until we get back to Europe before running her again and look at the English 1,000 Guineas and the French equivalent.

"Where she runs will all depend on the going - she won't want soft ground."

Gamilati, trained by Mahmood Al Zarooni, has won on three of her six starts, with her biggest success to date coming in the six-furlong Group Two Irish Thoroughbred Marketing Cherry Hinton Stakes on turf at Newmarket in July, 2011.

Rated 120 by Timeform, Gamilati is currently available at [15.0] for the 1,000 Guineas whilst stablemate Discourse (Timeform Rating 116p) is second best in the market at [9.2].
