Verdict
Cricklewood Green won twice at Brighton last month and this course is not dissimilar in layout. But he'll do well to confirm running with PACOLITA on 6lb worse terms with Sylvester Kirk's four-year-old heading the short-list in front of the three-year-olds Boycie, Another Boy and Frank Bridge. Mezzotint is interesting as though it's three years since he last won on Turf he's 18lb lower now and did score at Chelmsford at the end of last year off a higher mark.
