OKLAHOMA CITY, OK—MAY 22, 2016—The Grade 3, $44,800 Merial Oklahoma Distaff Challenge on Sunday at Remington Park was won by one of the younger contestants in a field of veteran females. Getting Even, a 3-year-old filly, rallied for her just her second career score, pulling away to win the 400-yard race by a length.
Owned by Christine Hudson of Morgan Mill, Texas and trained by Mike Robbins, Getting Even was ridden by Omar Reyes who picked up the mount after Cody Jensen, the jockey named to ride, was injured earlier in the weekend.

Lightly raced, Getting Even has her career going now in just her fifth race, pulling in her first stakes triumph.
“We’ve always knew she had this in her… we hoped that she did,” Robbins said. “Last year she had a few little problems along the way. Christine was good enough to let me rest her, most of the summer and all winter and she’s really come back into herself.”
Getting Even drew away at 8-1 odds and paid $18.40 to win, $10.80 to place and $10 to show. Eyesa Good One was second and paid $7.60 to place and $4.60 to show. Honeymoon Candy was just a nose behind the runner-up for third and paid $3.80 to show. Send Me This Wagon was the beaten 6-5 wagering favorite, finishing sixth.
A 3-year-old filly by One Famous Eagle from the Dash For Destiny mare Dash Master Miss, Getting Even was bred in Texas by Scarlett Hill Farm. The second win from five lifetime stars was worth $22,356 for Getting Even, running her total earnings to $28,160. She is a sister to Texas Classic Derby(G1) winner Lil Famous Dash.
Dash Master Miss is one of the industry's "blue hen" producers. A superior race horse with earnings of nearly $250,000 and wins that include the Grade 1 Kansas Derby, Dash Master Miss is the dam of AQHA Racing Champion Significant Speed ($517,605), G1 winner Push The Pace ($513,119), G2 winner Dash Master Jess ($275,692), etc. She is also the granddam of Ruidoso Futurity(G1) winner Jess Significant ($257,292), etc.
Trey Wood saddled Eyesa Good One for owner Johnny Trotter. A 4-year-old daughter of all-time leading sire First Down Dash from the multiple stakes winner Eyesa Jump, by Eyesa Special, earned $9,720 to boost her record to $38,490. Jesus Salazar had the riding assignment aboard the Vessels Stallion Farm, LLC and Jesse Huitron California-bred.
