COCKLEY BECK and Hermanus are bumper winners and could fight out the finish of an ordinary-looking mares' hurdle. Nicky Richards' daughter of Westerner gets the nod as she's a half-sister to a winning hurdler/chaser in Ireland. Boogie Life has every chance on her third at Kelso in the spring while the switch to hurdling may suit another Westerner filly, Western Lass.
