Sir Michael Stoute boasts one runner in the Group Three Sovereign Stakes at Salisbury on Thursday in the form of Regal Reality. The experienced eight-year-old has landed a group three race every year since 2018, including this race three years ago and most recently the Group Three Diomed Stakes at Epsom a couple of months ago, just under a length ahead of 2/1fav Highland Avenue. That was a nice bounce back to form after a couple of below-par runs and the gelding is usually consistently competitive at this level.
Another big run is expected of him in the hands of Richard Kingscote.
