      Verdict

      BERT THE ALERT edges it at the weights and won a handicap over C&D in October. He had one of his bad days at Kempton last time but dropped in class today, he should have just have enough to take care of Resplendent Alpha if back to his best. The latter usually runs his race at this level and the C&D winner makes more appeal than the modest Anychanceofabirdie while it's impossible to make a serious case for either Bravo Belle or Carlton Scroop.
