The Hungerford heroine Sacred and the Solario race served as launchpads for another Gosden star, Raven's Pass, who later made Breeders' Cup history. Quiet Reflection's own racing career was marked by impressive victories, including a length and three-quarters lead over The Tin Man at Haydock.

The best offspring of Quiet Reflection is Lake Victoria, who was crowned the champion European two-year-old filly in 2020. Three of Quiet Reflection's four offspring who have raced have won, including over jumps.
Lake Victoria's success is a testament to the quality of Quiet Reflection's genetics. In 2016, she also made history by winning the Irish 1,000 Guineas, making Quiet Reflection the broodmare of a Classic winner.
