[4] Joan of Arc is her seventh foal, the first six being Marvellous, Gleneagles, Coolmore (C L Weld Park Stakes), The Taj Mahal (Zipping Classic), Happily and Vatican City (second in the Irish 2000 Guineas).

After being restrained in the early stages she stayed on well and overtook the front-running outsider Zara Mac 100 metres from the finish, only to be caught on the line and beaten a nose by the Donnacha O'Brien-trained Hazel.

Ridden by Wayne Lordan she recovered from a poor start to dispute the lead a furlong from the finish but tired badly in the closing stages and came home sixth behind the 80/1 outsider Keeper of Time.

She tracked the front-running No Speak Alexander and gained the advantage inside the final furlong but was caught on the line and beaten a short head by her less fancied stablemate Empress Josephine.

[9] On 20 June Joan of Arc was sent to France and moved up in distance to contest the Prix de Diane over 2100 metres at Chantilly Racecourse in which she was ridden by Ioritz Mendizabal and went off the 5.3/1 third choice in the betting.

"[11] At Goodwood Racecourse on 29 July Joan of Arc was matched against older fillies and mares in the Group 1 Nassau Stakes over ten furlongs.

In September she returned to France and came home last of the seven runners in the Prix Vermeille at Longchamp, beaten almost fifteen lengths by the winner Teona after being eased down by Mendizabal in the closing stages.
