Verdict
BLUEBELL DIVA gave notice of an imminent victory when runner-up here last month and duly obliged at Clonmel. She's up 7lb but progressing fast and should again take care of third-placed Doyen Ta Win. A Mere Bagatelle was sent to Cartmel to lose her maiden tag in June and has continued to perform well without winning. She's only 1lb higher than that winning mark but didn't impress here on Tuesday. Bugscuffle hasn't won in eleven starts but ran easily his best race to date over this track and trip last month, a race that has worked out well. and wouldn't need much more.
