I been to sovngarde twice and I saw only nords,imperils and maybe some bretons and no beast races. And I'm sure there are other heros of other races that deserve to go there. So I believe it has something to do with being a nord.

Redguards are not the same as Nords,Mer or Beast. They are not human or descendants of the other human races. They have adopted other races culture for trade and through war.

I think they use the term Sovngarde because the game is set in Skyrim.
