MOOJEH gave trainer Marco Botti his 40th winner of the year by striking in a 7f handicap on December 21.
The tally, which includes a victory in Italy as well as Gitano Hernando's Grade 1 triumph in America, has arrived in the middle of a hot spell for the Green Ridge Stables team, who have sent out four winners in five days.
Gracious Melange, Splinter Cell, Falcativ and now Moojeh have all been victorious since December 16 to help the Botti string finish 2009 on a real high.
This latest success came as Moojeh regained her best form under Jockey Jerry O'Dwyer.
Sent off an unconsidered 20/1 shot for her latest assignment, the daughter of King's Best also won over course and distance back in September.
For her second win in six career starts, she burst from the back of the filed to cut down her rivals and win going away by three quarters of a length.
