Dubai Majesty Wins Incredible Revenge
Dubai Majesty rallied strongly in the lane to run down odds-on favorite West Ocean to capture the $100,000 Incredible Revenge Stakes by a neck at Monmouth Park on Sunday before a crowd of 11,421.
Trained by W. Bret Calhoun, Dubai Majesty covered the 5 ½ furlongs over firm turf in 1:02 1/5 and paid $6.40, $2.60 and $2.20 as the second choice in the field of six fillies and mares. West Ocean completed the $11.20 exacta and paid $2.20 and $2.10. It was 3 ¾ lengths back to Lady Rizzi, who returned $3.40 to show.
“I just wanted to ride her with patience,” said winning jockey Miguel Mena. “I’ve ridden the horse a couple times, so I know her pretty well. When I swung her out in the stretch she exploded. She was full of run in the end.”
Sunday’s stakes score was the 10th in 31 starts for Dubai Majesty, a 5-year-old by Essence of Dubai from the Great Above mare Great Majesty. She has now earned $769,243 for her connections.
