If there is 1 submit button, you can find element by checking input type submit 

 //input[@type='submit']

If there are more and you know it place in page for example 2. Search by child number as:

( //input[@type='submit']) [2]

You can try this method it works fine. Here is my xpath,

//*[@id="CaseTypes_39aa6635-cd44-4104-a9f7-e33c3f96e2ab__Amount"]

Here is my code:

 [FindsBy(How = How.XPath, Using = "//*[starts-with(@id, 'CaseTypes_') and substring(@id, string-length(@id) - string-length('__Amount') +1) = '__Amount']")]

I hope it helps!!
