Asteverdi
Asteverdi is a five-year-old who has spent the last two years chasing wins without finding them. The horse has a modest record across 22 races—three wins and 11 places—which puts it in the middle range of the racetrack: reliable enough to earn money regularly, but not consistently good enough to take the biggest prize. What makes Asteverdi's current form notable is the drought. The last win came at Nottingham on October 30, 2024, nearly two years ago. Since then, six consecutive races without a victory, though recent efforts show some promise with placings in three of the last six runs, including a third place just days ago.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The horse does have a track record worth noting: on slightly soft or muddy ground, Asteverdi is genuinely competitive, winning 2 of its 5 races in those conditions—a 40 percent win rate. That is substantially better than its overall performance. At the standard level where it usually competes, Class 4 races, it wins roughly 1 in every 5 runs. These are not flashy statistics, but they show Asteverdi is capable of winning when the ground suits and the field is beatable.
James Owen, based in Newmarket, trains the horse and runs a prolific yard—205 winners this season alone—so Asteverdi has the infrastructure and expertise behind it. Recent jockey Kieran O'Neill has yet to find the winner's circle aboard Asteverdi across five rides, though that is a small sample. With the horse actively racing and placing regularly, Asteverdi remains a candidate for a fourth career win, especially if the yard can engineer a run on ground with some give and at a track where the pace suits.
