Eye-catching debut winner Coif makes her seasonal return in the G3 Prix Penelope over an extended mile and a quarter on turf at Saint-Cloud, France, on Monday, April 18.
The three-year-old filly, representing Andre Fabre, ran on strongly from the rear of the field for a taking victory under Mickael Barzalona, who has the ride again, in a nine-furlong Polytrack maiden at Chantilly in November.
The daughter of Shamardal meets eight other fillies including Saint-Cloud Listed winner Camprock, plus debut winners Jadhaba and The Juliet Rose.
Lisa-Jane Graffard of Godolphin said: "Coif is in good form and ready to get her season underway.
"The going is very testing at Saint-Cloud at the moment and there is a question mark over how she will cope with it, but she should get the trip.
"She is coming up against several highly-regarded fillies and we will hopefully know a bit more about her future programme after this race."
