Shisospicy ‘Perfect Now’ After Missing Trip to Saudi Arabia

[Wandering Eyes]

Shisospicy (Mitole), the champion female sprinter of 2025 and GI Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint heroine, has recovered from infection that forced her to skip last weekend's planned trip to Saudi Arabia.

“Shisospicy, she's perfect now,” trainer Jose D'Angelo said of the 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard.' “I don't think that we have enough time to prepare in the way that we would like to go to Dubai, so we are on standby with her.”

Last year's GI Breeders' Cup Sprint winner Bentornato (Valiant Minister), meanwhile, is on schedule to make the trip to Dubai for the $2-million G1 Golden Shaheen Mar. 28, per D'Angelo.

“Bentornato is doing great. I'm very happy with his [last] workout. We are planning to leave for Dubai on the 13th,” D'Angelo said. “I'm very happy with them. I'm sure that they're going to have a good year. Hopefully, we can get the trophy here from Dubai.”
