[3] Her dam, Maryinsky by Sadler's Wells, was bred to Danehill in Ireland then sent to the United States where she foaled Peeping Fawn, who is thus considered an American-bred horse.
She started a strong drive with over two furlongs remaining and moved into second place but could not get by Light Shift, who held on to win by half a length.
[1] On 30 June, Peeping Fawn went off as the 7/4 favourite against older fillies and mares in the Pretty Polly Stakes at the Curragh.
"[8] Peeping Fawn followed up with a comfortable win in the Irish Oaks on 15 July, defeating Light Shift by 3+1⁄2 lengths.
Johnny Murtagh, who took over as her jockey from an injured Kieren Fallon, held her near the back of the pack during the early portion of the race.
"[9] Her next start was the Nassau Stakes on 4 August, where she again faced Light Shift plus top older horses Mandesha, Speciosa and Nannina.
Speciosa set a brisk pace tracked by Peeping Fawn, who moved to the lead with three furlongs remaining.
Mandesha made a late run to finish second but never threatened Peeping Fawn, who won by a length and a half under a hand ride.
[10] On 22 August, she made what would prove her final start in the Yorkshire Oaks, winning by four lengths over Allegretto despite being eased near the finish.
