        Verdict

        Bahamian Love gets the vote over Catlivius, Shustraya and Beautiful Madness. Barry Hills sent out the winner of this event 12 months ago, and with the benefit of a low draw in stall two, Bahamian Love is selected to take the prize back to Lambourn. On the bare form the filly is nothing special, but this will be her fifth attempt, and on her sixth behind Strategic Prince at Salisbury in May on ground similar to today's, she has more claims than most. Catlivius hails from a powerful northern yard, and is going the right way, while Shustraya will be one to latch on to when upped in trip on breeding. Beautiful Madness has not really progressed from a promising debut here in June, and may find the going too soft, and all in all, it is Bahamian Love that catches the eye.
