Time Test set for Keeneland Time Test has been given the green light to contest the Breeders' Cup Mile at Keeneland at the end of this month. A brilliant winner of the Tercentenary Stakes at Royal Ascot over a mile and a quarter before finishing fourth in York's Juddmonte International, the Dubawi colt came back to a mile to run out a decisive victor in last month's Joel Stakes at Newmarket. Connections decided to sidestep Saturday's Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot and trainer Roger Charlton has confirmed he will now be prepared for a trip across the Atlantic. "Time Test worked well at Wolverhampton on Thursday under Ryan Moore and the plan is that he departs for Lexington, Kentucky next Saturday to enable him to run in the Breeders' Cup Mile," Charlton said. "Wolverhampton were most accommodating, allowing us to use the stalls which were positioned similar to how it will be in Keeneland and he worked a mile with two lead horses. He looks very well and is in a good place. "At this stage it is tricky to know exactly what will turn up, but it appears that Esoterique will prove to be the greatest danger. "A good draw will be essential."
