Shisospicy, a standout turf sprinter who captured the 2025 Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint (G1T) at Del Mar, is set for an ambitious international campaign in 2026 under Morplay Racing. After beginning her 4-year-old season with up to two races in the Middle East—including the $2 million 1351 Turf Sprint in Saudi Arabia and potentially the $1.5 million Al Quoz Sprint in Dubai—she will return to the U.S. for summer racing, possibly at Saratoga, before concluding the year with a title defense at the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint at Keeneland. Her schedule is designed to maximize her potential while minimizing travel stress, learning from her challenging 2025 Royal Ascot experience.
Shisospicy’s impressive 2025 season earned her nominations for three Eclipse Awards, highlighting her as a champion 3-year-old filly, female sprinter, and female turf horse. Morplay Racing, which fully acquired her for $5.2 million, views her as more than just a racehorse, emphasizing her special place within their stable. The team is excited to explore international turf sprint opportunities, aiming to build on her already stellar résumé with carefully selected high-level races worldwide.
