If they were to actually run her she would prove to be inferior to the top males and possibly set her back from prepping toward the major goals she is pointed towards.

There is absolutely nothing to hype, nor any reason to do so. Coolmore is not a commercial breeder. If they do it, it's strictly an ego, sportsmen, etc. thing -- even if they say it's to increase the filly's value. They don't sell their fillies, and they don't sell their foals. If they were going to syndicate her for breeding and to race the foals, it would be a done deal regardless of whether or not she takes on the boys. It's just outside their normal MO/business model.
Hype is not needed here IMO. If they change their MO and race her for these reasons, great. As a fan, it's moot as to why they would race her -- just the mere fact that they would is what the fan is looking for.
