"There have been a few false dawns for Wimbledon Hawkeye supporters, most notably when he won in the US around this time last year, but I really think he has now turned the corner and matured into the horse he always threatened to be".

"I think there will be more improvement to come and eye-catching entries in the Prix Morny and the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere would suggest that his connections feel the same".

"If there is a future Group 1 winner in this 5 runner field, I think it is most likely to be him".

"He is one of the better prospects to have come out of the summer meetings and I do expect him to prove that if he is switched to Paris later in the year".

"I think he is more likely to make his mark over fences in a couple of years time than be a Triumph hurdle contender. However, he is one of a number of talented French youngsters that have joined the champion trainer this summer and is worthy of note for that point alone".
