Beverley

The highest win rate in the entire field at 33% (4 from 12 races), Fluorescence has just won at Pontefract 14 days ago and is clearly in form heading here. Her one weakness on soft ground is untested, but her explosive win rate and partnership with recent form suggest she could easily outrun her 10.0 odds in a wide-open race.

Second-highest rated in the field and a proven Class 1 winner, but Washington Heights faces a huge ground problem here—he has won 3 from 12 on fast ground but has zero wins from any attempt on wet or muddy terrain. His recent form is also concerning with an 8th place at York just 50 days ago, suggesting he may not have recovered his early-summer sharpness.

The editorial pick boasts the best record at this distance (2 wins from 4 races) and has form on good-to-soft ground, but his recent record is deeply worrying—he has finished 13th, 15th and 9th in his last three races, including one just 9 days ago. This is a horse that won a top-level race in June 2024 but has won nothing in 26 months; the gap between his pedigree and his current form is stark.

A three-year-old with one of the better win rates in the field (1 in every 5 races) and a Class 1 win at Newmarket, Argentine Tango also has a course victory here at Beverley in May. However, she finished 14th at Goodwood just 30 days ago and has not raced since, raising questions about whether she is peaking or fading.
