Kon Tiki will be put through her paces at Newmarket on Friday, with trainer Jane Chapple-Hyam planning to supplement her charge for the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot.
The Night Of Thunder filly is unbeaten in three starts, supplementing two all-weather novice successes with a Listed strike on her first turf spin at York’s Dante meeting.
After bypassing a run in the Prix de Sandringham at Chantilly at the start of the month, Kon Tiki will have a racecourse gallop before connections pay £46,000 to add her to the Coronation field.
Speaking at the July course on Wednesday morning, Chapple-Hyam said: “She’s really good, she’s coming here on Friday morning for a gallop and she’s being supplemented then on the Saturday.
“We looked at the Sandringham in France which was on French Derby day, it just came that fortnight too quick and she came in season, so it was a combination.”
