FormscanBy Mark Nunan - MIGHTY MEGGSIE could be on a nice mark for her handicap debut after an easy maiden victory at Down Royal. The daughter of Arakan had shown plenty of promise in bumpers and in her early starts over hurdles and a rating of 106 doesn’t look excessive with the prospect of more improvement to come. There’s likely to be plenty of pace on here with the likes of Kitty Galore and Betty Zane in the line-up and the latter drops in class after a respectable effort in Listed company at Gowran. Bonarc picked up the pieces when runner-up in a Grade 3 novice at Tipperary and is a well-exposed type but Ena Baie would have a chance if recapturing the form of her third in a competitive handicap at the Festival here in April. Influential Lady bolted up in lesser company last time but is hard to recommend from 6lb out of the handicap.
