Katy Perry is totally ready to gallop in on her "Dark Horse." After the song found a surprising wide audience with little to no promotion, Perry's label Capitol decided to make the trap-infused, Juicy J featuring track the album's third official single. Now, as the official launch of "Dark Horse" is on the horizon, Perry has revealed the regal single artwork.

The "Dark Horse" cover features an ornate gold motif around the border, with a birdcage in one corner and a bird in the other. The hand-drawn cover then features a purple-tinted Perry in the center rocking a puffy purple queen's gown straight out of the 18th century.

The entire sketch gives off a very royal vibe, fitting for a maiden recovering from a broken heart galloping back to life.

"Dark Horse" is the third official single from Katy Perry's third studio album Prism. Initially, the track was released ahead of the record as a "teaser" single and was never planned on being an official release.

However, fan tastes made Perry and Capitol change their minds and release "Dark Horse" officially, particularly after second single (and Perry's favorite track) "Unconditionally" failed to crack the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100.

This week, "Dark Horse" rose to the No. 6 spot on the music chart.
