Channon sees Attitude fitting the bill for Nunthorpe challenge
However, the West Isley handler would prefer to pay the £40,000 required to supplement and take on the best around on the Knavesmire, feeling his in-form mare has the chance to make her mark in an open division.
Channon said: 'I would love to be able to supplement her for the Nunthorpe next week, the quick ground which we should get there and the fast pace which always comes with the Nunthorpe should suit her down to the ground.
'This year and previous years, it's so tight at the top of the five-furlong division and there is no real standout. On their day pretty much anything in the field could win the race if things go to plan.
'I'm not saying she'll win it, but even if she could go and be placed in it, it would be massive for her pedigree and she's a great mare for the team at Norman Court Stud (owners) where I'm sure she will be going at some point to be a broodmare.
'I would be really keen to give it a go, but if we don't then we do have lots of other options as well.'
Miss Attitude is a 25-1 shot with William Hill for the Nunthorpe and reflecting on her Deauville victory, Channon added: 'It was a great performance at Deauville and she did it very well.
'She's had everything in her favour in terms of the strong pace to aim at and quick ground, but Rob (Hornby) gave her a peach of a ride.
'She's arrived back and had a day back in the pens and we'll see her canter tomorrow, but she seems to have come back really well and she travelled well so all looks good to the future.'

Horse racing tips: Wednesday, August 13 – Ffos Las and Kempton

If you already have a William Hill account, check out more free bets from the UK's best betting sites, reviewed by our experts 8.25 Ffos Las – Class 5 Handicap (1m; Sky Sports Racing) BRETTON WOOD (NAP) might be no good – he has certainly looked limited so far – but he's interesting now he steps up in trip and makes his debut for Jack Channon. His former trainer, Robert Cowell, is striking at around 10 per cent this term, whereas Channon is knocking in winners at around a 20 per cent clip – impressive stats. Bretton Wood has been campaigned as a sprinter, but if it turns out that they have been running him over the wrong trip, he could be ahead of his modest handicap mark. And this flat track on quick ground won't make for a severe stamina test at the distance. The selection is by Frankel, out of Group 1 winner Pretty Pollyanna, so he ought to be better than a lowly mark of 62. 8.45 Kempton – Class 4 handicap (2m; Racing TV) ENVIRONMENT AMIGO should be better for his recent reappearance over 1m 4½f at Newcastle and will be suited by this step back up in distance. James Fanshawe's runner won a couple of staying handicaps on the all-weather at Southwell last term and still looks to have improvement in him.
