The Haggas yard has started the new year in fine form and WOODS will prove a popular choice in this. He made a promising start when third at Lingfield last month and Ryan Moore’s presence will further boost confidence. Target Zone was beaten less than a length at Lingfield recently and is not out of this while Great Shout has been thereabouts over 7f in both starts so far. Of the newcomers, Farzeen cost 375,000gns and Dubai Metro is a brother to a Listed winner among others.
