Irish raider Ability N Delivery has been threatening to score at Dundalk of late while Quality Art was placed over track and trip before finishing runner-up at Lingfield last week. Rat Catcher is another running well without success and has the beating of Two Turtle Doves and Spic 'n Span but a chance is taken on the lightly-raced EQUITA (NAP). The latter is showing steady progress and will not have to improve much on her recent third over course and distance to come out best in this.
