      Verdict

      MICHAEL’S MOUNT will be a short price to return to winning ways in this company after a fine run behind Global Citizen in a Grade 2 at Kempton when he finished ahead of several useful novices. He’d won easily on debut at Doncaster earlier and that form is working out well. Never A Word made mistakes when finishing a well-beaten fourth at Warwick and will need to jump better if he’s to make his mark over timber but Veiled Secret showed some promise at Doncaster last month and should improve for the experience.
