As a juvenile she made an immediate impact, winning the Group 1 Prix Marcel Boussac on her second start and being rated the best filly of her generation trained in England.

She was sired by Dubawi a top-class son of Dubai Millennium, whose wins included the Irish 2,000 Guineas and the Prix Jacques Le Marois.

At stud, Dubawi has been a highly-successful breeding stallion, siring major winners such as Monterosso, Al Kazeem, Makfi, Lucky Nine and Night of Thunder.

[4] For her next appearance the filly was sent to France and moved up sharply in class to contest the Group 1 Prix Marcel Boussac over 1600 metres at Chantilly Racecourse on 2 October.

The filly was then sent to Germany and stated favourite for the Preis der Diana over 2200 metres at Düsseldorf on 6 August, but after leading in the straight she was overtaken in the closing stages and finished third behind Lacazar and Megera.

On 9 September she came home fourth behind Hydrangea, Winter and Persuasive in a strongly-contested running of the Matron Stakes with Qemah, Roly Poly and Rhododendron among the beaten horses.

[7] For her final run of the year, Wuheida was sent to California for the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf at Del Mar Racetrack on 4 November, in which she was ridden by Buick and started at odds of 8/1.
