Silent Rule continues her remarkable rise with a flawless 9-for-9 record after capturing the Diana S. Black Stakes.

Trained by Jay Bernardini and regularly ridden by Brandon Tapara, Silent Rule has now won nine consecutive races to start her career. Her latest victory came in the Diana Stakes at Belterra Park, where she outkicked Generous Lover in the final sixteenth to remain undefeated.

Silent Rule is by Street Boss out of a Candy Ride mare, Modern Lady. The pedigree brings together tactical speed and stamina—attributes that have made her versatile across distances from six furlongs up to 1⅛ miles on the turf.

With total earnings now approaching $300,000, Silent Rule has progressed from allowance-level wins to full-fledged graded stakes domination. Her Diana Stakes win was her first at the Grade 1 level and marked her fifth stakes win overall.

Trainer Bernardini has plotted a savvy and measured campaign, guiding her through class rises without overexposing her early. Meanwhile, jockey Tapara has developed a rhythm with her that reflects trust and timing—often allowing her to settle just behind the leaders before pouncing in the stretch.

Silent Rule's consistency and mental composure have set her apart in a division that often sees form fluctuate. She has won on firm and good turf, from tracks as varied as Mahoning Valley, Thistledown, and now Belterra.

What’s next for Silent Rule remains to be seen, but if connections continue her current pattern, a summer or fall Grade 1 campaign at Saratoga or Keeneland may be in play. With her record intact, every entry will carry added weight—and attention from bettors and turf fans alike.
