Matron Stakes
On her final appearance, Sophisticat started 3/1 second favourite for the Matron Stakes on 7 September at Leopardstown in which she was matched against older fillies and mares. Despite being accompanied by two stablemates who acted as pacemakers, she never looked likely to win and finished sixth of the nine runners behind Dressed To Thrill. After the race she was reported to be in "respiratory distress".
