59 $71 1-Cosmic Crusader (NZ) 59 7.1L 2:03.30 Rtg 112 Following a similar preparation to last year which saw him run third to Half Yours, running in the Underwood, Turnbull and Caulfield Cup both years before backing up on Cox Plate day. Picked off a few late in the Cox Plate when beaten seven lengths which was a solid enough trial for another tilt at the Cup. The airborne Ciaron Maher stable have had 12 months to build him up and he looks on track to run right up to his best. Strapper Carly Holt
