Raised a Secret wins the 2015 Harris Farms Stakes at Fresno
Rimrock Lake , a 2-year-old gelding, won the WA Cup Juvenile Colts and Geldings Stakes Aug. 27 and in the process gave his sire, Raised a Secret , his first stakes winner.
Out of the Parker's Storm Cat mare Nightwalker , Rimrock Lake took control of the seventh race at Emerald Downs Sunday as he entered the lane en route to a 7 1/2-length victory.
He won the 6 1/2-furlong contest with Jennifer Whitaker in the irons in a final time of 1:18.81.
Rimrock Lake broke his maiden with a 4 1/2-length win July 30 at Emerald Downs.
The Clemans View Farm homebred is trained by Howard Belvoir.
Raised a Secret, a son of Songandaprayer, retired with a 5-10-8 mark from 31 starts with $492,130 in earnings. His top run came toward the end of his career when he finished third in the 2016 Los Angeles Stakes (G3). His only stakes win came in the 2015 Harris Farm Stakes. He was bred in California by Dahlberg Farms and trained by Mark Glatt.
Rimrock Lake is the sire's second-most successful offspring among 13 starters based on earnings, trailing only Talk About Autism . The 3-year-old colt out of Emyvale Court has earned $41,780.
He is owned by Rodney Orr and entered stud in 2018. Raised a Secret stands at El Dorado Farms in Enumclaw, Wash. for $1,500.
