Cosmic Outlaw won over a longer trip at Kelso in October with Brandy Mcqueen back in third. The latter has found one too good again subsequently but Starlyte scored over a shorter distance at Newcastle on her first start for a new yard. Lock Down Luke is not the most consistent though is due one of his better efforts but a chance is taken on LASTOFTHECOSMICS. The latter returned to action with a third over course and distance and should be in the mix with Brian Hughes taking over the reins.
