FormscanBy Mark Nunan - MITIVA was friendless in the market when disappointing on handicap debut at Ballinrobe but might be a different proposition after a summer break. Liz Doyle's charge won a bumper on soft ground at Thurles last year and had a couple of good placed runs in maidens so, if she returns to form, there must be a good chance that she can defy a mark of 100. Banada Bridge brings solid handicap form to the table and has only gone down by a length on her latest two starts at Wexford and Sligo. She was runner-up on soft ground at this venue last year. Nurse Garvey has shown improvement in recent maidens and has to enter calculations on her first foray into handicaps.
