Only 3l behind Time For Sandals over C&D last summer; had just one AW run since, when failing to reward strong market support over C&D in April (finished third off an 11lb higher mark); subsequent turf efforts easy enough to forgive and he makes his stable debut (same owners) off a tempting mark; could be an AW specialist and he's of some interest.
