space in values not filtering data on dashboard

I have data coming in where I have a field called Result which holds data as below

1) "FAIL"

2) " FAIL "

3) "PASS"

4) " PASS "

now i have created a dashboard where the Result field is used in Drop down box. I have cleared the extra space from the field using

| rex mode=sed field=Result "s/ //g" |

I also have a table showing data of values of PASS and FAIL count where i have also cleared the space using rex command and created fields of Results using 

| stats count(eval(searchmatch("PASS"))) AS PASS count(eval(searchmatch("FAIL"))) AS FAIL |

Now when i filter "FAIL" or "PASS" in drop down and submit, The table on dashboard does not show count for values having space (i.e. " PASS " and " FAIL ") and shows count for only without space values.

how can i solve this.

why not use ltrim on your Result field, this will remove the space from the left side of the values for the Result field and then try out your stats counts

|eval Result=ltrim(Result," ")|..rest of your stats n counts
