Cyber Secret pulls off minor Razorback upset

The top three were well clear of the rest, with Brethren, Alternation, San

Pablo, Najjaar, Donoharm, Ride the Lightning and Raison d'Etat completing the

order of finish.

"At the half-mile pole he was in the clear and it was his race to win or lose

from that point," Whiting said. "He was able to grind them down. It was a good

win, but I've never had a bad one. I'd think he'd deserve a chance in a race

like the (Grade 2 Oaklawn Handicap April 13)."

Cyber Secret has now won three straight this meet for trainer Lynn Whiting,

preceding this victory with allowance scores on January 21 and February 15. The

four-year-old went unplaced in three prior stakes appearances at two and three

before concentrating on passing his allowance conditions. His record now stands

at 13-5-1-0, $252,564.

Bred in Kentucky by Paragon Farms, Cyber Secret was a $110,000 Keeneland

November weanling. He was produced by the Dixieland Band mare Stomping, a

half-sister to multiple stakes winner Open Toe. Both were produced by the

stakes-winning Cyane mare Foot Stone.

This female line produced Tempted, the champion older mare of 1959.
