Verdict

WIMBLEDON HAWKEYE looks capable of even better and can become the first since Elm Park in 2014 to complete the Royal Lodge/Futurity double. Aidan O'Brien has an outstanding record in this (11 wins) so his recent Autumn Stakes winner Delacroix rates an obvious danger. Anno Domini and Detain have been very impressive when winning both their starts in novices and are fascinating contenders in what looks a really strong renewal.

  1. WIMBLEDON HAWKEYE
  2. DELACROIX (IRE)
  3. ANNO DOMINI
