The Haggas yard remains in flying form and PINK SANDS may well make a winning reappearance. She’s penalised for winning over 5f at Ripon last summer but this extra distance should bring further improvement and she’s preferred to stablemate and newcomer Praised. The latter cost a whopping 425,000gns as a half-sister to a Listed winner while Courtesy belongs to the family of her yard’s Group 2 winner Eminent. Silver Machine is penalised for November’s success at Chelmsford while Spring Campaign is another returning to action after a lengthy absence.
