1st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Two promising bumper runs; mixed over hurdles and was pulled up in her first two handicaps but she showed truer colours when persevering into a close second to an idling winner at Hereford (2m, good to soft) before Christmas; back up 6lb; likely good contender. |
3/1 |

2nd 9 |
21st Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Pulled up in both her handicap hurdles in the spring and has been absent since but she had shown ability beforehand and it's significant that her top stable is persisting with her. |

Lightly raced 5yo who has run okay when fifth the last twice but hasn't been shaping as though a first win is imminent. |

21st Mar 2024 Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 4 |

Debatable what she achieved when beaten 15l in an AW bumper and especially after then finishing tailed off on soft at Taunton; hurdling debut. |

29th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |

Didn't shape too badly in an AW bumper in November (beaten 15l) but still not easily recommended. |

13th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 3f 110y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Wasn't beaten far in the second of three bumpers, at Huntingdon in October, and flew too high in a Listed Doncaster race in December; unraced on slower than good to soft and likely best watched on hurdle debut. |
25/1 |

15th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Half-sister to the stable's classy Lookaway; well beaten in February and perhaps flattered off a modest pace when under 5l away back at Huntingdon in October (behind two of these); now tongue tied; others would appear to have more going for them. |

£5,000 5yo; fourth foal; closely related to 3m hurdle winner Teescomponentstrig, half-sister to 2m4f-3m2f hurdle/chase winner Fenland Tiger; dam placed bumper/2m5f hurdle; stablemate of Dropitlikeitshot and she looks a longer-term prospect. |

Verdict
Stoutly bred filly The Secret Pearl is respected after finishing second in a big field on soft turf last month, while By The Grace represents a top stable and has been placed on both starts. However, it might be worth chancing STORM SPIRIT, who disappointed on turf in March but made a promising debut on this surface at Newcastle in February.[Chris Wilson]
