Sandown not in Chapple-Hyam's plans for Kon Tiki
Chapple-Hyam said: 'I'm not going to run Kon Tiki at Sandown, it is a little bit too soon after Royal Ascot so we're just going to sit and wait.
'I think we'll be looking at a Group Three for her next and something like the Valiant Stakes back at Ascot (July 26).'
The daughter of Night Of Thunder won her first three outings in great style, winning twice on the all-weather before transferring that form to turf when scooping Listed honours at York in the spring.
She was then given a chance in elite company after being supplemented for a red-hot Coronation Stakes at the Royal meeting, finishing a creditable seventh in a race won by Joseph Murphy's Cercene.

Horse racing tips: ‘This is a seriously impressive animal' – Templegate's 11-2 NAP for day two of York
TEMPLEGATE'S TIPS Horse racing tips: 'This is a seriously impressive animal' – Templegate's 11-2 NAP for day two of York Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TEMPLEGATE tackles day two of the York Ebor Festival confident of bashing the bookies with his best racing tips - after landing a 5-1 NAP on day one. Back a horse by clicking their odds below. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up Bet £10 get £50 in free bets for racing with Tote - CLAIM HERE York Ebor Festival best free bet offers - CLICK HERE REMMOOZ (3.00 York, nap) Owen Burrows has a smart prospect on his hands in this son of Blue Point who was an impressive winner over course and distance last time out. There were a couple of today's rivals behind him that, including Sisyphean who has each-way claims again. Kevin Stott's mount enjoyed the quick ground there and that was just his handicap debut so there should be more to come. A 4lb rise in the weights is more than fair and his stall 11 draw should be fine in this big field. RAINBOWS EDGE (4.10 York, nb) She has gone close a couple of times at Listed level and this is a great winning chance. She took a fast-ground handicap over a mile at Ascot in May and proved that was no fluke when denied only a neck over 1m2f in a stronger race than this here last month. That form looks rock solid and today's extra furlong looks within reach given how she stuck on that day. The Gosden filly is unexposed at 1m4f, and boasts the right blend of class and tactical speed for a race expected to be run at a strong pace. BONUS TIME (5.20 York, treble) She scored nicely at Naas last time on the back of a good effort at Leopardstown and The Curragh. There's more to come and this track and trip should be ideal. Templegate's TV verdicts YORK 1.50 ROYAL FIXATION can swoop late to land the Lowther. She surged home for second in the Duchess of Cambridge at Newmarket on just her second start, clocking a smart speed figure and shaping like a filly with loads more to come. With plenty of pace likely and fast ground to suit, this should fall nicely for her. America Queen looked electric on debut at Haydock and she's a big threat on this major rise in class. Staya also caught the eye finishing fast in a strong Group 3 at Ascot and will be running on late. Argentine Tango is hard as nails, already a Listed winner and second in the Molecomb so has place claims. Dandana is unbeaten and progressive but untested at this level, while Wor Faayth is thriving but needs more after a French Listed win. Pearl Fortune, Timeforshowcasing and Secret Hideaway all step into deeper waters here too so need to improve plenty. 2.25 GOLDEN BROWN was really unlucky in a hot contest at Godowood last time. He was knocked sideways inside the final quarter-mile before keeping on. He's unexposed, back on quicker ground and this stronger pace should suit. Tadej sets the standard after winning a French Group 3 and remains unbeaten at 6f, but he'll have to be at his best to take this from the front. Anthelia has already landed the Super Sprint at Newbury and a Listed prize. She's tough and progressive, though all her wins are at 5f. Song Of The Clyde is progressive and has place claims. Raakeb ran with credit in the Superlative at Newmarket and is best over this trip so is on the shortlist too. Ardisia is thriving and well suited to this likely fast-run 6f, but will need luck from his draw and usual tardy start. Kamakameleon was fifth in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot and shouldn't be underestimated. 3.00 REMMOOZ looked a Group horse in the making when winning on handicap debut over course and distance last time. He saw off a few of today's rivals with a bit left in the tank. Owen Burrows will conjure more improvement from him even from a mark of 102. Big dangers include Bullet Point, who's in peak form and rarely runs a bad race. He was narrowly denied in a red-hot contest at Ascot last time and will likely force the pace again from a low draw. Apiarist shaped better than the bare result in a big-field Galway handicap and is a player back on faster ground. Urban Lion has improved steadily this term and was a close third in a strong Ascot contest last time. He stays 1m well and has form at the track. Old Cock, Northern Express and Sisyphean are all proven here and not discounted for a place. 3.35 MINNIE HAUK is the clear standout in this small but classy renewal of the Yorkshire Oaks. Unbeaten this season and already a dual Oaks winner, she's been dominant over this trip and shaped as though there was plenty in the tank when grinding out victory in the Irish Oaks last month. Conditions are ideal - she's handled everything from soft to good - and her tactical speed combined with staying power make her a nightmare to peg back. Estrange has done little wrong, also unbeaten this term, but her only defeat came on firm ground and that lingers as a slight concern unless the track catches a shower or two. She should run another decent race. Garden Of Eden wasn't at her best in Germany last time so has something to prove after that and may find this sharpish 1m4f a tad on the quick side. Qilin Queen has been well placed this season and made all in a French Group 2 last time, but faces a serious class hike now. She will have to take a major step forward to figure in this. 4.10 RAINBOWS EDGE has gone close a couple of times at Listed level and this is a great winning chance. She took a fast-ground handicap over a mile at Ascot in May and proved that was no fluke when denied only a neck over 1m2f in a stronger race than this here last month. That form looks rock solid and today's extra furlong looks within reach given how she stuck on that day. The Gosden filly is unexposed at 1m4f, and boasts the right blend of class and tactical speed for a race expected to be run at a strong pace. She can confirm form with Charlotte's Web on their clash here with the Crisford runner looking the main threat again. Karmology and Alice Monet are in-form dangers, while the lightly raced Aeolian is open to further progress at this trip. At bigger odds, Lady Vivian could bounce back returned to a calmer grade and stamina test after a decent effort at Group 2 level last time.

The 'amazing' way Kate Middleton' shows up for her children revealed by fellow school mom
She may be a royal, but Kate Middleton is like any other mom when it comes to her kids' sporting events. Despite her busy schedule, one of Kate's fellow school moms has revealed that she is often cheering her son on at his school soccer and rugby matches. The Real Housewives of London star Panthea Parker spoke about it to Hello! Magazine during a recent interview. 'I see her quite a few times because my son's school plays against her son's school,' the TV star shared. 'They play rugby and football against each other so we're always at her school or my school. I do see her a lot but not to talk to, just from afar.' Panthea went on to praise the Princess of Wales for being there to support her kids while also managing her immense royal commitments. '[She's] so classy, so lovely, and she never misses any of her children's matches, so really amazing,' she gushed. 'And nor do I, otherwise how do I know that?' Panthea has three kids with her husband, Ed Parker, aged 11, nine, and eight; she also has a son, 30, from a past marriage. She didn't specify which of Kate and Prince William's kids she was referring to; the couple share sons Prince George, 12, and Prince Louis, seven, and daughter Princess Charlotte, 10. It comes after news hit the web that the couple were looking to move their family from Adelaide Cottage into an eight-bedroom Forest Lodge property in Windsor Great Park. An insider told the BBC that they will be relocating to the 'forever home' by the end of the year, and are hoping for a 'fresh start' after a difficult time at Adelaide Cottage, during which Queen Elizabeth died and Kate and Charles received cancer diagnoses. With its chandelier-lit ballroom, tennis court and extensive grounds, Forest Lodge is a considerable upgrade from the cozy four-bedroom Adelaide Cottage where the prince and princess and their young family have lived for the last three years. Renovations are reportedly underway at the property to enable it to be ready for the family to move in before the end of the year. A source close to the family said: 'Windsor has become their home. However, over the last few years while they have lived at Adelaide Cottage there have been some really difficult times. 'Moving gives them an opportunity for a fresh start and a new chapter; an opportunity to leave some of the more unhappy memories behind.' The Waleses' move will be a short one from their current main home at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, and the children attend nearby Lambrook School. It comes after news hit the web that the couple were looking to move their family from Adelaide Cottage into an eight-bedroom Forest Lodge property in Windsor Great Park (pictured) The home offers spectacular views, and Soccer fan William will be able to see the Wembley Arch from his bedroom window. The family first moved to Windsor in 2022, where they settled at the humble Adelaide Cottage a short walk away. It is believed the move out of London was to allow the family to be closer to the late Queen and to give the children a more ordinary way of life with more privacy. Adelaide Cottage also provided a private and tranquil setting for Kate's recovery from chemotherapy after she was diagnosed with cancer last year. The family has no live-in staff at their current home and this is also reportedly set to be the case once they move into this bigger abode. A Kensington Palace spokesperson told the Daily Mail: 'The Wales family will move house later this year.'
