Can I tell you I love this filly?

She was among my first newbie gifts - this one from Mallory, who rocks - and I'm at a loss at the moment.

She's coming off back-to-back wins- her maiden and a NW3 ...

Both were convincing...

But where to put her next? Ideally I'd like to try out a stakes quality race for her to see if I've caught lightning in a bottle, but the nearby Del Mar Oaks seems overly ambitious.

So what should I do next? If she didn't totally blow away the field in the NW3 i'd lean towards an allowance race. But I'm curious as to what I really have here.

Any ideas?

Looking at her breeding and running lines, she may even want to stretch out more - to 1 1/4 miles. I don't see any stakes except for the Del Mar Oaks, but you never know about race sponsorships - but a low level (listed, maybe even G3) sponsored stakes race for 3yo fillies at 9-10fT there in California to optimize her chances would be the ideal.
I'm just here for the fun of it
