In depth
Verdict
With none of these yet to hit the front three, this boils down to a matter of potential. Becca Campbell has shown fair form in ordinary maidens but looks more of a nursery project and it would not surprise to see something prove too good for her. DUBAI'S SECRET ran in a decent-looking maiden at headquarters on debut and was never competitive after a sluggish start before making a little late headway. Sure to improve like many of the yard's newcomers for the run, the son of Paco Boy can progress sufficiently to accept what looks an easier opportunity. Andar and Pickapocket are potential improvers for Clive Cox and Charles Hills respectively whilst Burmese Whisper and Summer Icon look best of the debutants on paper and demand a market check.
