Verdict
Cricklewood Green beat Pick A Little over track and trip recently under today’s apprentice and is upped 3lb. Stephen Cummins partnered Wordismybond to victory at Lingfield last week but Rhiain Ingram takes 5lb off the back of GIOVANNI DI BICCI (NAP). The latter rattled-up a four-timer on the all-weather before placing over a longer trip at Chelmsford last time and should go close back over a mile today. Tee It Up Tommo remains in woeful form and hard to fancy.
