Sovereignty remains the only horse to have defeated Preakness winner Journalism and brought his record to five wins from eight starts, with his sole defeat this year coming when second to Tappan Street in March's Florida Derby.

For most 3-year-olds, winning the $485,000 Jim Dandy Stakes (G2) would be a huge accomplishment. Yet there's a different perspective for a dual classic winner. Then the Jim Dandy becomes a means to an end for a colt like Godolphin's Sovereignty.

Jim Dandy - the namesake of the signature Saratoga stakes race - won the 1930 Travers Stakes over Triple Crown winner Gallant Fox at odds of 100-1

Mo Plex, a New York-bred trained by Jeremiah Englehart, is slated to face Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty in the Jim Dandy on July 26 at Saratoga Race Course.
