Verdict

TIME’S ARROW showed a big improvement when finishing second over track and trip last week and Sir Michael Stoute’s colt is preferred to Vigee Le Brun, who showed some early promise before well beaten in Listed company at Newbury in October. Silent Echo is a likely improver on his first start since June while jockey bookings suggest Punkawallah is preferred to stablemate Nigh Or Never. Know The Truth is a half-sister to three winners and a newcomer to keep an eye on.
