High-minded, left of centre satyrs (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lofty

'high-minded' is the definition.
(I know that high-minded can be written as lofty)

'left of centre satyrs' is the wordplay.
'left' becomes 'l' (common abbreviation).
'centre' means to look at the middle letters.
The central letters of 'satyrs' are 'ty'.
'l'+'of'+'ty'='LOFTY'

(Other definitions for lofty that I've seen before include "Majestic - patronising" , "Eminent" , "Noble, elevated" , "Haughty" , "Very high" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
