        Verdict

        This is no better than the earlier division with a token vote going to recent 1m4f runner-up SANTADELACRUZE to end a barren spell. Helium has yet to win on the Flat but the veteran went close at Brighton in October while Par Three separated a couple of modest efforts over 2m with a second over 1m4f at Wolverhampton. Brooke's Point has placed over a mile but never looked like catching the winner over 1m3f at Kempton last month while Grand Facile’s only win so far came over 2m.
