      In depth

      Verdict

      Arctic Lynx has been in fine form so far this year and won again last week when successful over track and trip. He should still confirm running with The Dandy Yank despite a 5lb rise but SAVED MY BACON (NAP) is preferred. The latter made a bold bid for a hat-trick when second at Southwell last time with Eva Clare well beaten having landed a double at this venue earlier. Angel Way is not the most reliable but went close at Lingfield in August off a similar mark.
