The dam of Secret Circle was a classy plodder who I remember well from Calder. She was beaten 21 and 13 lengths in her first two career tries in maiden races at Colonial Downs. Developed into a consistant closing router with a whole lot of Calder black type.
It's not a precocious and sprinter pedigree. It's more a developing plodder to developing plodder pedigree.

What's interesting is that Secret Circle's full brother, Eddington Limit, is an out-and-out speed horse.
