About

Secret Key is a 4yo b from Japan trained by Satoshi Inoue. He is by Drefong out of Keep Secret and has captured three victories to date. On 20 July 2024 at Kokura he earned his most valuable win, the $29,979,876.00 Amakusa Tokubetsu (allow). The horse has been a money‑maker for bettors; a continuous backing would have yielded a 108% return on investment.
