        Verdict

        HONEY OF A KITTEN was unfancied in better company at Wolverhampton last time and ran accordingly. He'd beaten higher rated rivals in a claimer over track and trip before that and with Ryan Moore booked can reverse earlier running with today's rival Bert The Alert. The latter makes more appeal than Conducting as Gay Kelleway's charge was winning for the first time since 2010 when scoring here three weeks ago beating Officer In Command and Legal Legacy in the process. Ellie In The Park could prove best of the remainder.
