Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted March 5, 2021 Journalists Share Posted March 5, 2021 Following the death of its flagship sire Pastoral Pursuits (GB) last week, Norton Grove Stud in North Yorkshire has secured Pearl Secret (GB) (Compton Place {GB}) to join its stallion roster. Campaigned by Qatar Racing, Pearl Secret won listed races over five furlongs at two and four before taking the G2 Temple S. at Haydock at five. He was also third in the G1 King's Stand S. at four. The chestnut stood his first four seasons at Chapel Stud, and his first crop is three this year. He had five first-crop winners last year from 27 starters from a crop of 35 named foals. Norton Grove Stud tweeted, “After the sudden and unexpected death of Pastoral Pursuits at the beginning of the covering season, we are now in the position to announce that Pearl Secret will be joining our stallion ranks. As a consistent five-furlong stakes winner and having won three [stakes] races and [been] Group 1-placed from three to five years, all over five furlongs and beating 60 group winners, including 16 Group 1 winners, we believe he is the perfect compliment to our existing lineup and will meet the needs of many of the local trainers.” The post Pearl Secret To Norton Grove Stud appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
