On her first appearance as a three-year-old Maids Causeway was one of twenty fillies to contest the 192nd running of the 1000 Guineas over the Rowley Mile course at Newmarket on 1 May and was made the 5/1 favourite.
After a break of more than three months, Maids Causeway returned at Newmarket in October in which she was matched against older fillies and mares in the Sun Chariot Stakes.
