Cosmic Chatter hasn't been running well and is still on a higher mark than his last victory. Casterbridge has the form for this though all of his victories have come on ground with some give. Rich Again has become a specialist on Tapeta at Wolverhampton so PEA SHOOTER (NAP), who chased home Bondi Beach Boy on very fast ground at Thirsk on Saturday, looks the one to be on. It's over two years since One Boy won and he's still on a higher mark while the very lightly-raced Questo makes his handicap debut.
