Master of The Seas

At stud, Dubawi has been a highly-successful breeding stallion, siring major winners such as Monterosso, Al Kazeem, Makfi, Lucky Nine and Night of Thunder.

She also ran second in the 2003 renewal of the Group 1 French 1000 Guineas (Poule d'Essai des Pouliches)[5][6] As a two-year-old Master of The Seas debut in a Novice event at on June 18, 2020, over seven furlongs at Newmarket.

Master of The Seas had one more start as a two-year-old where he was shipped to Ireland and where raced keenly when defeated into fourth place in the Group 1 Goffs Vincent O'Brien National Stakes at The Curragh.

[12] In his last start in 2021 in the Group 1 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes, Master of The Seas made little impression as he was soundly beaten into seventh place by Baaeed.

[6] Trainer Appleby had hoped to take Master Of The Seas to the G1 Queen Anne Stakes to face Baaeed at Royal Ascot but suffered a setback after the event and was sent to the paddock to recover.

On January 20 Master of The Seas returned from a nine months' spell in the Group 2 Zabeel Mile on the Meydan Racecourse in the United Arab Emirates.

He had to fend off the late challenge of the David O'Meara-trained Shelir, who was denied a clear run when making headway, but Master Of The Seas had too much and held on by half a length.

Jockey William Buick, who won the Zabeel Mile for the fifth time, let Master of The Seas draft just behind the leaders down the backstretch and was in perfect position to exploit a gap between them at mid-stretch.

After the short spell Master of The Seas was entered in the Group 2 Fred Cowley MBE Memorial Summer Mile Stakes at Ascot Racecourse.

Outsiders Classic Causeway and New Kingdom opened up a huge lead in the early stages only to capitulate on the home turn, with Master of The Seas sweeping through from off the pace to win the third Group 2 of his career by four lengths.

[16] Connections indicated that Master of The Seas could next appear in the G1 Sussex Stakes or travel to the United States and run in the Grade 1 Fourstardave Handicap at Saratoga Racetrack.

In pre-race discussions, Buick and Appleby strategized for the rider to take Master of The Seas back, hope for a quick pace, and call on the gelding's acceleration to make up the difference.
