Move In Time will continue his preparation for the defence of his Prix de l'Abbaye crown in the Qatar King George Stakes at Glorious Goodwood.

David O'Meara's sprinter reappeared for the first time since his finest hour in France when winning a small race at Hamilton on June 30.

"He'll run at Goodwood next in the King George," said O'Meara, speaking at a press morning at his yard to launch the Go Racing In Yorkshire Summer Festival.

"He'll then go to York for the Nunthorpe, over to France for a race he ran in last year (Prix du Petit Couvert at Longchamp) and then the Abbaye again.

"It was a nice introduction for him at Hamilton.

"To be honest, we hadn't planned to run him there. We were going to start him off at Goodwood, but we spotted the race.

"It cut up on the day and even though he was just three-parts fit, he won it nicely.

"All roads lead back to France, that's always been his main aim.

"He could be one of three in the Nunthorpe for us, with G Force and Out Do, too.

"G Force will run in the July Cup first, while Out Do could run in the City Walls at York on Saturday."
