BOLD DIVA just failed to catch Dickie Le Davoir when runner-up at Wolverhampton on her latest start. Back on a winning mark, she can go one better here. Far View made all to beat Loyal Royal and Misaro over C&D last month wearing cheekpieces for the first time. They are back on today after a disappointing effort without them at Wolverhampton last time, while there was little between Jonny Ebeneezer and Young Simon at Kempton last week but both look a shade high in the weights at present.
