Dream Harder showed some promise when fourth at Kempton on his debut while Udaberri is fitted with a tongue-tie after placing at Chelmsford. That pair make most appeal of those with experience but Charlie Appleby’s yard is in flying form and the newcomer SECRET IMAGE, a half-brother to a UAE 2000 Guineas winner, gets the vote. He’s preferred to the other Godolphin runner Night Of Luxury though the latter is entered in the Group 1 Futurity while Aadel is another debutant to note.
