Welcome to the second day of our two-day August meeting, featuring Salisbury’s feature race of the season, the £70,000 Tattersalls Sovereign Stakes, Group 3.
We are very grateful to Tattersalls for sponsoring this race for a third time. Not only is their financial support very much appreciated, Salisbury is also very proud to have such a significant industry name associated with our big race. Our thanks too, to each of our other sponsors, all of whom are long-standing contributors.
The next racing is just over two weeks away on Friday 1st September, when there will be a Coldplay tribute band on stage after the evening racing.
Beyond that, Thursday 7th September, is another of our top days, featuring the Group 3 ITM Dick Poole Fillies’ Stakes.
Thank you again for joining us today and we look forward to seeing you at Salisbury again soon.
Best wishes

STAR RATING EXPLAINED
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below: Selected to win the race
Good chance of being placed.
By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims
Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. Can be given little or no chance.
The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability. The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions. A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances).
The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in non-handicaps races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed. Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating
DID YOU KNOW: William Haggas has won two of the past four renewals of the British EBF Premier Fillies' Handicap (4:40) and today the Newmarket handler bids to extend that fine record with Truthful.
RACE ONE
FALLING FOR YOU made a pleasing start to her racing career when finishing a far from disgraced fourth over 6f at Windsor last month. She shaped as though an extra furlong would aid her cause and, with progression likely, gets the vote at the main expense of the grade-dropping Romanova, who failed to get involved in Listed company at Sandown on her debut The unraced Nothing To Fear is related to a few smart types and completes the shortlist.
WIN: FALLING FOR YOU
RACE TWO
DANGER: ROMANOVA
A case can be made for several of these, but it is hard to oppose WELLEEF, who kept on well to score by two and a quarter lengths on his racecourse bow over this trip at Leicester. He does have to shoulder a 7lb penalty for that success, so Crown Dreams can give him plenty to think about having filled the runner-up spot on both career starts Solar Portrait warrants a market check on his debut and is another to consider
WIN: WELLEEF
RACE THREE
DANGER: CROWN DREAMS
BOOM BOOM POW recorded a staying-on success over 7f at Kempton in June and a reproduction of that effort can see her firmly in the picture. She is rated 7lb higher for that success but, with the potential for more to come, can get the better of Eye Of The Water, who has to shoulder top-weight after a pleasing third at Bath most recently The unexposed Kalamunda completes the shortlist.
WIN: BOOM BOOM POW
DANGER: EYE OF THE WATER
Regal Reality added another Group success to his CV when winning the Diomed at Epsom in June and the gelded son of Intello, a former winner of this contest in 2020, merits respect under his penalty. Chichester confirmed his well being with a comfortable victory at Listed level last time and is another to consider, though MIGHTY ULYSSES edges preference. The Gosdens' charge returned from an absence with a decent fifth in the Summer Mile at Ascot, but he can take a step forward in first-time cheekpieces
WIN: MIGHTY ULYSSES
RACE FIVE
DANGER: REGAL REALITY
Having opened her account at Newcastle in February, QUEEN REGENT lost nothing in defeat when filling the runner-up spot under a penalty at Wolverhampton last month. A mark of 89 wouldn't appear to be a gift, but there is enough on the dam's side to suggest this step up in trip can suit, and she is open to more improvement than most. Truthful's unbeaten record came unstuck in a Listed contest at Newmarket, but she is of interest on handicap debut, while Mistral Star is also noted.
WIN: QUEEN REGENT
DANGER: TRUTHFUL
MANTOOG showed plenty across her three runs to date, perhaps most notably when narrowly denied by the now 90-rated Truthful (engaged to run in the 4.40) over C&D in May. It looked another decent novice in which she competed at Chelmsford last time, and the handicapper might have underestimated her with an opening mark of 77 Monty Bay hit the frame over 1m at York last month and he is an obvious candidate upped in trip Malka can chase them home.
WIN: MANTOOG
DANGER: MONTY BAY

Race Summary: Having been thrown in at listed level for her debut at Sandown 3 weeks ago, ROMANOVA unsurprisingly found things all too tough, but sure to have derived plenty from that initial effort, Ollie Sangster’s filly is fancied to go close in much calmer waters. Newcomer Sky Blaze ticks plenty of boxes so she could emerge as the main threat, with Falling For You and La Sonnambula another couple to consider

ALPINA EXPRESS: Following its run on 14/7/2023 it was reported that the trainer could not explain the poor run.

Race Summary: Although QUEEN REGENT’s ability to handle turf has to be taken on trust she very much shapes like one who should have more to come now handicapping over further and is preferred to Truthful, who can get her career back on track with her sights lowered. The reliable Flash Bardot is another likely to be in the shake-up.

Cruelly, Kevin suffered a heart attack hours before kick-off and was admitted to hospital rather than heading to Wembley.
