The fifth One Thousand Guineas win for Bart Cummings and also the second straight for jockey Stephen Arnold, the 56th edition also marked by a 1-2 finish by Danehills, the sire supplying four of the 14 fillies, Flight Stakes second Moonflute and La Lagune missing the frame. Last year it had been the first generation Flying Spurs (by Danehill), All Time High and Ponton Flyer, who supplied a quinella. Magical Miss was a $520,000 Easter purchase for Bill and Rhonda Wyllie as the Perth developer spent $2.9m on yearlings. Cummings describes her as owning an enormous girth and a terrific action. His first Gr.1 winner since Rogan Josh in the 1999 Melbourne Cup equals the five 1000 Guineas winners prepared by Tommy Smith between 1963-85. Cummings's other winners were Anna Rose in 1963 (dh), Tristanagh (1990), Richfield Lady (1993) and earlier Danehill winner Dashing Eagle (1996).

The formerly named Houdini's Lass (later changed to Magical Miss) was seventh and three wide on settling from gate nine. Still there at the 400m, the 12/1 chance reeled in Ha Ha and wore the 2/1 favourite down. A green Li Lo Lil edged out True Jewels to grab third. Ha Ha and True Jewels were the victims of wide barriers, Jim Cassidy electing to lead rather than be trapped wide. Hooked Bid (CAN) sold for $180,000 and $60,000 at the Easter Broodmare sales of 1999 and 2000, the latter buyer Emirates Park, to offer her Desert Prince yearling colt at Easter. She then missed to Secret Savings (by Seeking the Gold).
