Tip

Shimmering Sands

Verdict

Shimmering Sands is the stand-out on our figures for this Class 5 contest at Beverley, rated several pounds clear of this field after winning his last two starts. Enamorus, Ziata and Kitsune Power all have solid placed form and are the chief dangers, though none matches Shimmering Sands on our figures. Mwafaq has a strong recent winning record that isn't reflected in our rating of him here. Shimmering Sands is a confident selection on the balance of form.

Comment

Won his last two starts to round off a progressive campaign, with the form franked by a fourth and a third before that. Has run over today's trip and going before, and although 21 days have passed since that latest success, he rates clear of this field on the book.

Comment

A prolific sort with three wins from his last five starts, including a success last time out, and already race-fit 17 days on. Has run over today's going before, but sits bottom of this field on our figures despite that record, leaving plenty to find against these rivals.

Comment

Yet to win in her last five starts but rarely disgraced, with two thirds - including last time out - and a second amongst the finishes. Has run over today's going before, and a sizeable gap to her official mark hints at more to come.

Comment

Won last time out and races again quickly just 6 days later, with the form book showing a runner-up effort and a third among his recent starts too. Has run over today's trip and going before, and a wide gap to his current official mark suggests there is more improvement in hand.

Comment

Yet to win in five starts but competitive throughout, with two thirds - including last time out - and a second amongst the finishes. Has run over today's trip before, and although 33 days have passed since her last outing, the gap to her official mark points to more improvement than that mark suggests.
