Useful gelding. Two wins from 4 runs last year. Below form 5¾ lengths fifth of 15 to Frost At Dawn in Nad Al Sheba Turf Sprint at this course (5f, good, 22/1) 28 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere.

Very smart horse. Creditable ½-length third of 13 to Master of The Seas in Breeders' Cup Mile at Santa Anita (8f, firm, 63/10) 147 days ago. Back down in trip. Ran well in this in 2022 and enters calculations.

Smart gelding. 7/1, creditable length third of 10 to Mysterious Night in Al Fahidi Fort at this course (7f, good) 64 days ago. Game winner of this last year and no doubt primed for a big run again.

Smart gelding. 9/4, career best when winning 10-runner listed race at Southwell (5f) 35 days ago by length from Juan Les Pins. In the form of his life but plenty more needed to figure in this.

Smart gelding. Didn't need to be at best when winning 9-runner local Group 3 Dukhan Sprint at Doha (6f, good) 42 days ago by head from Monsieur Noir. Still retains bags of enthusiasm and wouldn't dismiss.

Smart horse. Bit below form 4 lengths seventh of 14 to Annaf in Group 2 Turf Sprint (25/1) at King Abdulaziz (6.8f, good to firm) 35 days ago. Made remarkable progress in 2023 but well held in 2 runs so far this year.

Smart filly. Career best when winning 15-runner Nad Al Sheba Turf Sprint (25/1) at this course (5f, good) 28 days ago by 2½ lengths from Star of Mystery, getting first run. Has done well here but this is another step up.

Smart filly. Won first 2 starts here this year. Respectable 2½ lengths second of 15 to Frost At Dawn in Nad Al Sheba Turf Sprint at this course (5f, good, 2/5) 28 days ago, conceding first run. Sure to get a fierce pace to chase and she'll be rattling home at the finish.

Forecasts

Star Of Mystery (6/4), California Spangle (4/1), Frost At Dawn (5/1), Danyah (6/1), Casa Creed (10/1), Sight Success (18/1), Diligent Harry (25/1), Emaraaty Ana (25/1), Jasper Krone (33/1), Bilhayl (66/1), Ponntos (66/1), King Gold (80/1)

Verdict

CALIFORNIA SPANGLE drops back to sprinting for the first time in a while but has bags of speed and class and the Hong Kong challenger could be hard to peg back. Star of Mystery seems sure to be rattling home at the finish, while last year's winner Danyah can go well again.
