Really Special looked very much like the best 3-year-old dirt filly in Dubai when she comfortably won the UAE 1000 Guineas Trial on Jan. 19, and if she is, she will take all kinds of beating Thursday night at Meydan Racecourse in the $250,000 UAE 1000 Guineas itself.

ARCADIA, Calif. - Harbour Master tries to win consecutive races for the first time since late 2014 in Sunday’s $387,697 Centenary Vase at Sha Tin Racecourse in Hong Kong.
Harbour Master won the Group 3 January Cup at 1 1/8 miles on turf on Jan. 4. The Group 3 Centenary Vase is run on the same course at the same distance.
A 7-year-old gelding by Mizzen Mast, Harbour Master is part of a strong field of nine in the Centenary Vase, the seventh race on a 10-race program. First post time is 1 a.m. Eastern on Saturday. Wagering is available on DRFBets.com.
The Group 2, $250,000 Al Maktoum Challenge Round 2 on Thursday night at Meydan Racecourse could come down to a horse that never has run in Dubai, a horse with one start in Dubai, and one of the best-known horses in Dubai.
The last time Love Shock ran on turf, he swept past nine rivals in the stretch to win a minor handicap at Happy Valley Racecourse in Hong Kong on Dec. 7.
On Thursday, Love Shock returns to Happy Valley for a slightly tougher race, the $159,163 Hung To Handicap at six furlongs on turf. Love Shock is well suited to the conditions of the race, which is open to horses rated 60 to 85. Love Shock won a race for horses rated 60 to 80 in December. More recently, Love Shock was second in a race on the all-weather track at Sha Tin Racecourse on Jan. 18.
The era of owner-funded jackpot stakes is expanding to include the world’s richest turf race in Australia.
Australian officials Wednesday announced the launch of the Everest Stakes, a six-furlong turf sprint on Oct. 14 at Royal Randwick Racecourse outside of Sydney. The race will have a purse of approximately $7.5 million, or 10 million Australian dollars at Wednesday’s exchange rate.
