Dante's Rocco
Dante's Rocco is a five-year-old with a modest record so far — no wins and just one placed finish from three races, with recent results of fourth, third, and fourth. That's not a profile that turns heads, but it's also a horse that hasn't disgraced itself; finishing in the top four in all three outings suggests it's competitive, just not yet finding that extra gear to get to the front.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
What makes the picture a little more interesting is the timing. Dante's Rocco raced just yesterday, meaning this is a horse very much in the thick of its season right now. Trainers don't keep running horses that have nothing to offer, and the fact that Syd Hosie has kept coming back to the track with this one suggests there's a belief that a win isn't far away.
Hosie trains out of Sherborne in Dorset, a yard that has sent out five winners already this season — a reasonable return that tells you this isn't a stable just making up the numbers. When a trainer of that output keeps persisting with a horse, it's usually worth paying attention.
