Run over 1,400 metres, the Asian Beau Stakes is a Group 3 race taking place at Ascot Racecourse. With a $200,000 prize purse, it attracts some of Western Australia’s best sprinters and mid-distance runners.

The handicap clash is contested on the same day as Melbourne’s iconic Victoria Derby Day at Flemington.

Starting out as a Listed Race, this race was upgraded to Group 3 status in 1999.

This race serves as a decent lead up into the Group 1 Railway Stakes held back at the track over the Perth Summer Racing Carnival.

Six  horses have completed the Asian Beau – Railway Stakes double throughout Perth racing history: Bold Extreme (1996), Willoughby (1998), El Presidente (2007), Galaxy Star (2018), Inspirational Girl (2020) who also ran second in that year’s Group 1 Kingston Town Classic (1800m) – now run as the Northerly Stakes – and Western Empire (2021) who was also runner-up in that season’s Kingston Town Classic results.

More recently, Trix Of The Trade improved on a third in the 2022 Asian Beau Stakes to win that year’s Railway Stakes next start.

The 2023 Asian Beau Stakes didn’t just hold up — it flexed. Runner-up Alsephina backed it up with a cracking second in the Railway Stakes quinella that summer, then packed her bags for Melbourne and snagged third in the 2024 Group 1 Toorak Handicap after a tidy Group 2 Stocks Stakes win at The Valley.

Not to be outdone, Super Smink — the 2024 Asian Beau champ — kept the trend alive, running a bold third in the Railway next start. Safe to say, this Perth form’s got legs.

Which Horse Will Win The Asian Beau Stakes in 2025?

The best way to pick which horse will win the Asian Beau Stakes in 2025 is to take into account their lead-up spring/summer racing form, assess the barriers, and consider the weight each horse will carry. 

Additional factors to consider when picking the Asian Beau Stakes winner include: 

  • Lead Ups – Held early on in WA’s racing season, this race doesn’t have many lead ups, though it might be worth checking out the Northerly Stakes.
  • Mixed Company – At 1,400 meters, this race attracts both sprinters and middle-distance runners.
  • Local Edge – The majority of entrants will be from WA, because there are plenty of other meets happening at the same time of year on the East Coast.
