Sovereignty Skips Dubai World Cup to Chase Breeders’ Cup Classic

Sovereignty, the 2025 Horse of the Year, will skip the Dubai World Cup and instead focus on returning for the Breeders’ Cup Classic as a 4-year-old, according to trainer Bill Mott. The Godolphin-owned Into Mischief colt is based at Payson Park in Florida and, after missing the 2025 Breeders’ Cup due to a fever, his connections are weighing targets such as the Jockey Club Gold Cup and Whitney to balance a strong campaign with stallion-value considerations.
