Nuevo Slovo

Nuevo Slovo has won just once in nine races, a breakthrough that came at Ayr on 28 April 2025 and remains the sole high point of an otherwise modest three-year-old career. The horse has now gone 17 months without another win, though it did pick up a placing along the way — enough to suggest there is something there, but not enough to build on. Over the last six races, the results tell a familiar story of a horse trying hard but not quite getting over the line: eleventh, sixth, fourth, tenth, sixteenth, and seventh. That fourth-place finish offers the only real glimmer, though it is now several races in the past.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

Trained by Simon Pearce at Newmarket, Nuevo Slovo is part of a yard that has found five winners this season — a reasonable tally that suggests the trainer knows how to get horses ready. But this particular horse has not benefited much from that expertise. With a win rate of just 1 in 9 races and no return to the winner's circle in over a year, Nuevo Slovo sits firmly in that difficult middle ground: not talented enough to climb, not unsuccessful enough to discount entirely. The horse is still racing and still trying, which is something. Whether it will ever rediscover the form that brought that single victory at Ayr remains to be seen.
