Verdict

A useful winner in bumpers, TIME FLIES BY shaped with plenty of promise in the face of stiff tasks in a pair of Grade 2 hurdles last winter. That experience won't have been wasted on him and, with further progress expected, he can capitalise on the return to calmer waters. The Edgar Wallace was impressive in bumpers and is respected, along with Danny Kirwan.
