The contenders
Ciao Capo KTB Fit 63/100
Modest performer who has won both starts at Beverley and is three from three at this trip. Recent form of 41161 shows consistent ability on quicker ground but his only soft-ground run brought no reward. The Fahey yard has a solid 17% strike rate here while Orr is aboard.
Shimmering Sands KTB Fit 61/100
Shimmering Sands is a fair performer who has won at this trip five times from 17 starts and landed a Beverley victory from four runs at the track. Recent form of 34-113 shows consistent competitiveness at this level while the yard holds a solid 14% strike-rate here from a large sample. No experience on soft ground leaves that side of things unproven.
Rapide Vega KTB Fit 57/100
Modest performer who has shown some consistency lately with a win and a second in his last two starts. Steps up in trip today having been placed without winning over this distance on his one attempt so far. Trainer operates at an 8% strike rate from 64 runs here while the jockey has no established record at Beverley.
Project Geofin KTB Fit 54/100
Project Geofin is a fair performer who has shown consistent placed form at this trip, winning once and placing on three other occasions from six attempts. He has course experience here at Beverley, finishing second on his only visit, though the trainer's modest 5% strike-rate from 153 runs suggests limited encouragement from the yard's record at the track. The horse remains unproven on soft ground with no previous runs on it.
Everyoneknowsadave KTB Fit 53/100
Everyoneknowsadave is a fair performer who arrives in solid form after a recent win at this trip. He has no experience of soft ground and is making his first visit to Beverley, so both those questions remain unanswered. The yard's modest 8% strike rate here from 38 runs adds a note of caution.
