That's correct, with the caveat that you have to observe the blackout dates (listed in the AGR T&C's).

And even if you do have enough points, awards involving connecting trains and/or sleepers can't be booked online (you get a "No Availability" error message), so going the "Redeem Points" route is frequently useless.
