The filly made her debut in a maiden race over seven furlongs at Leopardstown Racecourse on 6 June in which she started the 11/4 favourite but came home fourth of the seven runners, just over three lengths behind the winner Cayenne Pepper.

Love immediately went to the front and was never seriously challenged, pulling away from her opponents in the last furlong to win "easily" by three and a quarter lengths from Unforgetable [sic].

On 23 August at the Curragh she was made the 6/4 favourite for the Group 2 Debutante Stakes but after taking the lead two furlongs out she was overtaken in the closing stages and faded to come home fifth of the nine runners behind Alpine Star, Petite Mustique, Soul Search and So Wonderful.

Soul Search, Precious Moments and So Wonderful were again in opposition as well as Tango (another Aidan O'Brien entry), Under The Stars (Princess Margaret Stakes) and Assurance.

[9] On 11 October Love was sent to England and stepped up in distance for the Fillies' Mile at Newmarket Racecourse and started the 4/1 third favourite in a nine-runner field.

The flat racing season in England was disrupted by the COVID-19 Pandemic and the 1000 Guineas was run a month later than usual on 7 June over the Rowley mile at Newmarket.

In rainy conditions the fillies raced on the far side of the wide, straight course with Cloak of Sprits setting the pace and Love settling in mid division to the left of the leaders towards the centre of the track.

Love settled towards the rear as the two pacemakers, Tiempo Vuela and Passion set off in front and opened up a huge lead on the rest of the field.

Love began to make rapid progress in the straight, picked off the pacemakers approaching the final quarter mile and drew away to win in "impressive" fashion by nine lengths.

[14] On 20 August, Love won the Darley Yorkshire Oaks by 5 lengths ridden by jockey Ryan Moore despite some concern by her trainer over rain on the course the previous day.
