Rastnet
Rastnet is a 4-year-old with just one win from twelve races, but the margins matter. That solitary victory came at Wolverhampton on 22 December 2025, and it remains her only success despite staying active in recent weeks.
John Butler's Newmarket yard has sent out 39 winners this season, but Rastnet has not found the winner's enclosure in nine months—a frustrating dry spell that spans his last six races, which have yielded two second-place finishes and a third but mostly mid-field efforts.

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The clearer pattern lies in what distances suit her. Over 1m1f to 1m2f, Rastnet has won one of four races—a win rate of 25 per cent that stands out sharply against her overall 8 per cent. That's roughly one winner in every twelve races across her whole career, but cut to these preferred distances, and she has a genuine chance. She has also shown her best form in Class 5 company, winning one of three races at that level, suggesting she may be most competitive when not stretched beyond her ceiling. The most recent evidence is mixed: a second place and a third in her last two outings offer hope of return to form, but they come after four consecutive races without a top-three finish. For a horse with her record, a return to the right distance and class combination could unlock another win.
