      Verdict

      TIMESAWASTIN looked potentially useful when storming to victory at Ffos Las in March and again when falling two out when clear on the same track the following month. The eventual winner that day, Ongenstown Lad, has subsequently won three times in Ireland so the form looks very strong and he can return to action with another victory. Briefcase is also on the upgrade as he showed with a very good second to Teshali over 2m5f at Uttoxeter when he led at today's trip. He looks the main threat as winning point-to-pointers Business Time and Don't Look Bach are making their hurdling debuts.
