Times Up bids to give trainer John Dunlop back-to-back successes in the Stowe Family Law LLP Grand Cup at York today.
Tactic took the prize for the Arundel yard last season and now his stablemate has the chance to land the Listed race over a mile and three-quarters.
Last season's November Handicap winner has yet to prove he stays this longer distance, though he gave every indication it might be within his compass as it took all of the mile and a half at Newmarket for him to gain a short-head verdict over Sharaayeen in a competitive handicap three weeks ago.
"Times Up has not won in three attempts at this trip, but gives every indication he will stay as long as he settles," said Dunlop's racing secretary Marcus Hosgood.
