      Verdict

      The trio with experience have shown little but both Puerto Sol and Good Night Mr Tom have nice pedigrees and look certain to improve. DUTCH DECOY, a 40,000gns yearling, is closely related to six winners, most of them sprinters, so should have the pace to make a successful debut though the 115,000gns Full Authority is also related to several winning sprinters. Strive For Glory cost $80,000 and is the first foal of a USA Dirt winner and he's another to keep an eye on as is the filly Keep Busy, who has a very speedy pedigree.
