Little Avondale Stud stallion Time Test was represented by a stakes winner in Italy on Sunday when The King’s Horses won the Listed Criterium Nazionale (1200m) in Rome to advance his record to three wins from four starts.
The colt also became the fourth individual stakes winner from the first crop of the Dubawi, who is also the sire of Group Three winners Rocchigiani and Romantic Time, as well as Listed winner Tardis.
Bred in the purple, Time Test is out of Passage Of Time, a Group One-winning daughter of Dansili and a half-sister to Gr.1 Falmouth Stakes (1600m) heroine Timepiece.
A high-class performer on the track, Time Test was a multiple Group Two winner and Group One placed in the UK for Roger Charlton, while he also placed in two Grade Ones for Chad Brown in America.
Time Test, whose eldest Southern Hemisphere crop have just turned two, stands at Little Avondale Stud where he will cover a full book this season at a fee of $8,500 +GST.
