Verdict
AROMATHERAPY can continue her unbeaten record this season at the expense of Persian Sea and Credit Swap. The selection now steps up in grade since winning back-to-back races at Great Leighs. Each time she has won she has improved and although she will need to step up on her achievements once again she is certainly worth staying on the right side of. Persian Sea is another filly on the upgrade. She bids for as hat-trick also after wins at Newcastle and Doncaster and will be another to note in the betting market. Credit Swap is rated a few pounds below the horses already mentioned but he did perform well to win at Lingfield last time out when sent off an odds-on favourite and is improving so has to be shortlisted.
