Verdict
The progressive ALTRA VITA has now won four of her last five outings after scoring over today’s trip at Ffos Las. Sir Mark Prescott’s filly hasn’t finished improving yet and can defy a penalty. Encryption won a maiden race at Yarmouth recently but Rydan is preferred on his third over track and trip behind Ravenous, due to run earlier on the card. The Secrets Out has struggled since winning at Newmarket in June but the lightly-raced Poucor could go well stepping up in distance.
