Secret Road

The most interesting number in Secret Road's record is at Lingfield Park, where it has won 2 of its 7 races there. That might not sound extraordinary until you consider how hard it is for any horse to find a track that genuinely suits — and Lingfield clearly does. It won there as recently as March 2026, just three months ago, so that affection for the place is current and real, not some distant memory from a different phase of its career.

Most of Secret Road's racing life has been spent at Class 6 level, the entry-level tier of British racing, where it has won 4 of 16 races — 25%, or 1 in every 4. That's a genuinely strong return at that level, suggesting it is one of the better horses in the races it typically contests rather than just making up the numbers. Colin Keane, one of racing's most respected jockeys, has partnered it 10 times and won twice together — a 20% win rate, or 1 in 5 — which is a solid record and speaks to a horse that performs when quality hands are in the saddle.

The recent form reads 9-10-12-4-1-6, which is a mixed picture — the last three runs have been modest, but that single win and fourth place in the middle of the sequence show the ability is still there. At eight years old, horses don't reinvent themselves, but they don't have to. Secret Road raced just yesterday, which means it's fit, active, and still being aimed at targets by Laura Mongan's yard in Epsom. With Lingfield Park in its back pocket as a course it genuinely knows how to win at, it remains the kind of horse that will keep catching people's eye when the conditions stack up right.
