Verdict

Aphrodisia has only won once in 15 starts on the all-weather but probably ran her best race on the surface at Kempton last time where she came with a late rattle over a slightly shorter trip. The veteran Bavarica has scored six times on Polytrack but may need the run after an absence since last summer, a remark that also applies to Sceilin, who has shown little form on the surface. The latter's stablemate Peaceful Means is another returning after a long break and she's much better over hurdles so this can go to STRAVERSJOY. Reg Hollinshead's filly has won four times in her career - all over today's C&D - though potential punters must forgive a very poor effort in a slightly better race here last time.
