GI Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty (Into Mischief) has been named the top 3-Year-Old Male and GI Alabama Stakes winner Nitrogen (Medaglia d'Oro) as top 3-Year-Old Filly in their respective categories at the Eclipse Awards.
Beaten just once in 2025 when second in the GI Curlin Florida Derby, Sovereignty wrapped up his year with wins in the Derby, the GI Belmont Stakes, the GII Jim Dandy Stakes and the GI DraftKings Travers Stakes, earning more than $5,600,000 in six starts for owner/breeder Godolphin and trainer Bill Mott.
Nitrogen began her year on the turf but easily found her footing on the dirt as well, racking up five graded stakes wins over both surfaces culminating in her victory in the GI Alabama Stakes at Saratoga for trainer Mark Casse and D.J. Stable. She finished her season second behind older fillies in both the GI Juddmonte Spinster Stakes and the GI Breeders' Cup Distaff.
