WIMBLEDON HAWKEYE is a really interesting contender in here on the class drop. Last year's Nashville Derby winner ran a cracker at this meeting 12 months ago when fourth in the King Edward VII Stakes and performed well enough on his return in the Brigadier Gerard at Sandown behind Ombudsman. There isn't anything of that calibre in here and James Owen's colt is taken to go very close. Haatem won this last year and commands respect for the in-form Richard Hannon yard, while Galen got within a length of him that day and is noted, as is Ghostwriter.
