Fallon factor key at Salisbury

Kieren Fallon and Sea Lord proved to be a faultless combination in the totesport.com Sovereign Stakes as they held Poet’s Voice by a nose in a pulsating finish to Salisbury’s feature race of the season.

With a sparkling treble on Wednesday’s card, Fallon is riding as well as he has since his comeback last year and he extracted the very best out of the Mark Johnston-trained Sea Lord (7-2), a horse for whom nothing seems too much to ask.
