Untapped, as potential (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

latent

(Other definitions for latent that I've seen before include "Hidden, not manifest" , "Existing but not yet manifest" , "Hidden (potential)" , "Not yet visible or developed" , "Talent (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
