Verdict
LYDIATE LADY was fourth at Catterick over the minimum trip last month and may be good enough. Quality Art has yet to win this year but has scored four times over course and distance in the past while Arctic Lynx was winning off higher marks last year. Andalusite has not won anywhere yet and Captain Ryan has so far done all his winning at Bath, though this is only his third start on the all-weather.
