Arcimboldo
Arcimboldo is a 4-year-old that has yet to break through at the winning post, despite showing occasional promise. In 14 career races, the horse has managed three places but no victories—a record that tells the story of a horse hovering just outside the winners' circle without quite getting over the line. Trained by
Mike Sowersby at Little Barugh in North Yorkshire, Arcimboldo is currently active and raced just a day ago, posting a seventh-place finish in that outing.

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The most recent form shows a horse capable of better days. In the last six races, Arcimboldo has produced a pair of fourth-place finishes and another fourth not long before, suggesting it finds its feet more consistently on some days than others. The seventh-place finish came after a ninth and a sixth, indicating recent form has been mixed at best. With jockey Aiden Brookes aboard for five rides—all without a win—there is no clear partnership that has found a winning formula. At Class 6 level, where Arcimboldo most often competes, it has yet to record a victory from six attempts, remaining in the lower reaches of the racing ladder. Sowersby's yard, which has sent out eight winners this season, will be hoping Arcimboldo can soon join that tally and finally deliver on the occasional glimpses of ability it shows.
