Proved a useful sprinter last season, notably winning over 5f at Glorious Goodwood in the summer and over 6f at Newmarket (good-ground Listed contest) final outing; finished in front of Venetian Sun when creditable eighth in the 1,000 Guineas on her reappearance; while she shouldn't be inconvenienced by the drop back to 6f it remains to be seen whether she can confirm that superiority over Karl Burke's filly at the shorter distance.

31 Oct 2025·Irish Stallion Farms EBF 'Bosra Sham' Fillies' Stakes (Listed Race) · Newmarket
This was only Spicy Marg's second run over six furlongs but on that you'd say she'd get further. We could look at something like the Nell Gwyn in the spring - Michael Bell, trainer.
30 Jul 2025·British Stallion Studs EBF Alice Keppel Fillies' Conditions Stakes (GBB/IRE Incentive Race) · Goodwood
I've been a little bit frustrated with Spicy Marg but, with hindsight, she's had legitimate excuses. She was impressive first time out and her homework has always been exceptional so I really fancied her going into the Queen Mary. She came into season the morning of [the race] so we had to put a line through that and when I rode her at Newmarket over six [furlongs] last time she pinged the gates, did too much early and didn't stay. The set up for her today was ideal and we saw the filly I hoped she was - Kieran Shoemark, jockey, speaking to Racing TV.

Spicy Marg did a nice piece of work ten days ago when she quickened up very nicely so we were hopeful coming here today. I trained her dam and when I saw this filly at the sales I was never going to be beaten in buying her. She'll go for the Marygate next - Michael Bell, trainer.
