From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Dubai Golden Shaheen is a Group 1 flat horse race in the United Arab Emirates for three-year-old and above thoroughbreds run over a distance of 1,200 metres (approximately 6 furlongs) on the dirt course at Nad Al Sheba racecourse in Dubai in late March.
It was first run in December 1993 as the Nad Al Sheba Sprint, and its place in the calendar was moved in 1996 to be included in the new Dubai World Cup meeting held in March. The race took its present name in 2000 and it attained Group 1 status in 2002.
