        Verdict

        AMBER MOON looks the most appealing option in this competitive event and she is nominated over Bahamian Bay and Vanatina. Jamie Osborne's filly is a lightly-raced type and she was only narrowly beaten last time out by Stargazy. She looks capable of going on from that and nominal improvement should see her tough to beat. Bahamian Bay and Vanatina both finished down the field in a race won by Charlotte Grey here last time out, but the form was franked by Charlotte Grey who won again on Tuesday at this venue so their claims looks solid enough. Gone'n'dunnett has gone right off the boil and she was beaten a long way from home last time out. However, she has shown in the past that she is capable of bouncing back and going in at a price so she is not one to dismiss lightly. Spy Gun has got winning form here in the past but he is returning from a break today and he may be sharper for the run. Amber Moon showed enough last time to make her the one to beat today.
