My Ballyquinn

Age: 3
Weight: 9st 9lbs
Or: 80

New Bay colt. Took a step forward on his handicap bow when cosily landing 3-runner event at Hamilton (11f) last month, doing well given he conceded first run. Up 3 lb but runner-up has gone in since and still looks ahead of his mark here.

Home Secretary

Age: 3
Weight: 8st 2lbs
Or: 61

Cut little ice in his 4 runs last autumn, last of 9 in novice at Redcar (7f) final one. Since gelded and no surprise to see him take a major step forward now handicapping over this much longer trip. Cheekpieces also added.

Central Command (Ire)

Age: 3
Weight: 9st 6lbs
Or: 77

Visored and much improved to land 1¼m handicaps at Newcastle and Lingfield this season, doing well on latter occasion having conceded first run. Well held at Haydock inbetween though so needs to prove his effectiveness on turf.

Cranachan

Age: 3
Weight: 9st 10lbs
Or: 81

Gelded and much improved this season, runner-up in Kempton maiden before readily landing the odds in 5-runner maiden at Catterick (1½m) in April. This well-related son of Cracksman is a player with more to offer now going into handicaps.

Mudita (Ire)

Age: 3
Weight: 9st 1lbs
Or: 72

Improved to win 1¼m maiden at Ripon in April but seemed unsuited by steady pace when only fifth of 6 on handicap debut at Nottingham (1¼m). Worth another chance.

03/06/26	Nottingham	1m 2f 50y	Gd/Sft	5/6	Flat

Timeform Verdict

MY BALLYQUINN deserves extra credit for getting off the mark at Hamilton and David O'Meara's progressive son of New Bay can defy a 3 lb rise in the weights here. Catterick scorer Cranachan also has better days ahead of him though and rates a big threat, while fellow handicap debutant Home Secretary can't be ruled out with improvement very much on the cards.
