The convincing victory also makes up for the disappointment of being beaten into second place in the 2015 edition by Irish-bred Prince Bishop, and matches the prediction of 78-year-old trainer Art Sherman, who said his horse would be five lengths better this year .
The race was the finale to a lucrative nine-race card at Meydan Racecourse, with $30m at stake in total.
California Chrome, so close to the famed 'Triple Crown' in 2014, had been preparing under Sherman in Dubai for over five weeks even taking part and winning a handicap race last month.
He was a fitting winner of a race which came of age with its 21st staging, a massive crowd enjoying the top quality racing and the thriving social scene at Meydan.
