We’re just a few sleeps away from the world’s richest turf race, and to help punters and racing fans get a quick read on the field, below is the Races.com.au team’s exclusive two-word 2025 The Everest form guide.

A massive $20 million purse and serious bragging rights are up for grabs this Saturday as we get set to crown the ninth winner of The Everest which officially runs as Group 1 race for the second time.

Ka Ying Rising is the horse everyone is talking about ahead of the event with David Hayes‘ four-time Group 1 winning Hong Kong superstar down under and ready to fly.

He’s been a dominant favourite in The Everest betting a long way out from the big day, but can he live up to the hype of his odds-on quote?

If he fails to fire in Australia, you bet the Aussie sprinters are ready to take advantage with the likes of Golden Slipper and Rose third placed filly Tempted, Chris Waller’s class mare Joliestar who ran seventh with excuses in the race 12 months ago, and distance specialist Briasa all lying in wait.

To help you sort the standout The Everest contenders from the second-tier pretenders in the iconic race, check out our two-word take on each and every runner.
