Stepped up on debut display when a close third in 4-runner Kempton novice (6f) in June. Form of that race has taken knocks since, but he is in good hands and remains open to improvement.

Promising debut when third in 6f Pontefract maiden a fortnight ago and, granted normal improvement, he should have a part to play in the finish.

Forecasts

Shem (6/4), Sands In Time (11/4), Haseef (10/3), Elland Road Boy (7/1), The Flying Ginger (12/1), Tommy And Andy (14/1), Red Walls (66/1)

Verdict

Armed with a speedy pedigree, SANDS IN TIME is every inch a likely-looking type and wouldn't need to be out of the ordinary to make a winning start to his career. The hint should be taken if the market speaks in his favour. Haseef and Shem have both shown promise and merit a great deal of respect, while Elland Road Boy is another newcomer who needs a close look in the betting.

  1. SANDS IN TIME
