        In depth

        Verdict

        Unique Moment has improved with each run so far and, with further improvement anticipated, Mark Johnston's filly is taken to open her nursery account at the main expense of Captivate and Roman History. The last mentioned has improved for the step up to seven furlongs of late but is no better than plating class and may find at least one too good again. Mick Channon's Yarmouth selling winner Noble Nova has yet to prove her effectiveness over today's trip and of more interest may be Snake Skin, who won a seller over course and distance last month and appears to be feasibly well treated on a mark of 58. The last mentioned holds Drawn Out on course and distance form, while Spunger is less exposed than most but has yet to translate all-weather form to turf. Sir Mark Prescott's Captivate has had the three runs necessary for a handicap mark but is likely to come into his own over middle distances next term and a safer bet looks to be Unique Moment, who can carry on her progression and take advantage of a favourable draw.
