Wiggins B²⁸⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: T D Barron| OR: 55

5/1

Didn't achieve much in maiden/novice events last year but returns as an unexposed sort who could fare much better in low-grade handicaps. Market support would look significant.

Form: 005-

Brian The Snail^p⁹

Age: 11| Weight: 9-9| J: P Mulrennan| T: P Morris| OR: 55| D

7/2

Respectable third of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good, 11/4) 9 days ago, nearest finish. Return to 6f a help. Should go well under Mulrennan.

20/1

18/1, 4¼ lengths seventh of 9 to Stroxx in handicap at Catterick (5f, good) on reappearance 12 days ago. Needs to have come on a fair bit.

Stroxx^b¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: Billy Garritty| T: L Bailey| OR: 52

10/1

Three wins from 63 starts but two of them have come this year, including at Catterick (5f, good) only 12 days ago. Should remain very competitive off only 2 lb higher.

4/1

Latest win at Newcastle in January. 7/2, below form-fourth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 42 days ago. Yet to prove he's as effective on turf but a much lower mark reflects that.

Forecasts

Brian The Snail (7/2), Tickets (4/1), Wiggins B (5/1), Variety Island (6/1), Fast Flo (9/1), Stroxx (10/1), John Kirkup (10/1), Miss Rainbow (11/1), Dunnington Lad (20/1), Hyrcanian (100/1)

BRIAN THE SNAIL may be 11 but the way he kept on for third over 5f at Nottingham recently suggests there's another win or two in him. Recent Catterick scorer Stroxx has had a productive start to 2025 and is second choice. A market move for unexposed handicap newcomer Wiggins B would also bring him firmly into the reckoning.
