2026 Sandy Lane Stakes Runners
Venetian Sun claimed a hat-trick of impressive wins over six furlongs as a juvenile last season, and Karl Burke will drop his Group One winner back to sprinting after she failed to see out a mile in the 1000 Guineas. Clive Cox's Coppull sits second in the betting, having returned to action with a Group Three victory in the Commonwealth Cup trial at Ascot.
Division was very slowly away at Ascot, but was only beaten half-a-length by Coppull in the Pavillion Stakes. Aidan O'Brien's Brussels finished a disappointing sixth that day, but returns to action at Haydock with Sean Levey in the saddle.
Kevin Stott and Kevin Ryan team up with Rock On Thunder, who was only beaten a length in last season's Gimcrack Stakes. Five Ways returns to his own age group, following a decent sixth behind Night Raider in the five-furlong Palace House Stakes.
Like Venetian Sun, Spicy Marg drops back down in trip having finished eighth in the 1000 Guineas. Oisin Murphy rides May Angel for John and Thady Gosden. Katie Scott's Figjam and Eve Johnson Houghton's Splish Splosh complete Saturday's line-up.
