She moved up to dispute the lead approaching the final furlong and looked the likely winner but was strongly challenged by the 50/1 outsider Sweet Side and beaten into second place.
[4] On her final appearance of the season, Woodstream was sent to England for the Cheveley Park Stakes at Newmarket Racecourse on 30 September, which, at the time, the race was the only Group One contest in either Britain or Ireland restricted to juvenile fillies.
[4] Woodstream was aimed at the 1000 Guineas at The Oaks in 1982, but took longer than expected to reach full fitness and missed the former race, which was won in her absence by On the House.
Woddstream appeared to be going well when moving into fourth with a quarter mile left to run but then began to hang to the right and was beaten a length by Prince's Polly, with On the House a short head away in third place.
Her connections opted to bypass the Oaks and the filly made her next appearance in the Coronation Stakes (then a Group Two race) at Royal Ascot in June.
She sweated up badly before the race, fought against her jockey's attempts to restrain her in the early stages and eventually finished seventh of the eight runners behind Chalon.
