Sovereign Spell

The recent form tells an interesting story. That sequence of 1-3-1-13-2 — read from most recent back — shows a horse that had one poor run sandwiched between some genuinely good efforts, and has since bounced back to win twice. The blip at 13th looks like an outlier rather than a pattern, and the response on either side of it has been emphatic. Sovereign Spell got off the mark at Windsor in August 2025, then added a second win at Wolverhampton just this week on 30 March 2026. Two different tracks, two different moments in the season — that kind of versatility matters.

Behind the horse is Kevin Philippart De Foy, a Newmarket-based trainer who has sent out 42 winners already this season. That is not a yard that struggles to find form — it is one that knows how to place horses in races they can win. When a trainer with that kind of firepower keeps running a horse, it is usually because they believe there is more to come.

Five races in, with two wins and four places — meaning Sovereign Spell has finished in the top three in all but one of its outings — this is a horse that competes hard every time it steps out. Still only three, still learning, and already with a trainer who clearly has it going the right way. Worth keeping an eye on.
