  We perform Monte Carlo simulations based on current age estimates of high-z
objects to forecast constraints on the equation of state (EoS) of the dark
energy. In our analysis, we use two different EoS parameterizations, namely,
the so-called CPL and its uncorrelated form and calculate the improvements on
the figure of merit for both cases. Although there is a clear dependence of the
FoM with the size and accuracy of the synthetic age samples, we find that the
most substantial gain in FoM comes from a joint analysis involving age and
baryon acoustic oscillation data.
