Victorious Secret off the mark

Victorious Secret finished best to prevail in the seven furlong handicap at Dundalk with Killian Leonard in the saddle.
Tommy Stack 's filly delivered her challenge between front-running Hasselnott and Yamato inside the final furlong and in the closing stages she stuck her head out well to win at 12/1.
The well-backed Yamato (15/2 in the morning to 7/2 favourite) was beaten a neck into second with Hasselnott (8/1) a nose back in third.
Killian Leonard said: "She had to be brave. I think she likes the hustle and bustle.
“I'd say that's her trip. She won over five here last year but is older and more mature now and wants a bit further.”
This was a step up in trip for the daughter of Holy Roman Emperor as she had been campaigned over five and six furlongs.
