Sidiriya
Sidiriya is a 7-year-old who has spent the best part of five years chasing a second win without success. The horse broke through with a victory at Galway on 6 September 2022, but has not won again in the 25 races since — a run of 50 months without returning to the winner's enclosure. That maiden breakthrough has proved to be the high point of a career that has largely consisted of minor placings: four places from 25 starts, which works out to roughly one place every six races.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Recent form offers little encouragement. Over the last six outings, Sidiriya has finished unplaced twice, placed twice, and posted a best result of second. The horse raced just a day ago and continues to race regularly, suggesting the yard is still confident enough to keep sending it out. Simon Torrens has been Sidiriya's most frequent jockey, partnering the horse eight times without a winner between them.
Sidiriya runs for P J Rothwell's Tinahely yard in County Wicklow, which has been having a strong season with 35 winners to date. That level of form from the stable suggests the yard knows what it is doing, even if Sidiriya has not been the vehicle for that success. At this stage, the horse appears to be a useful minor player — one that can run a race and occasionally get into the frame, but looks to have limited prospects of recapturing the form that brought that single Galway win half a decade ago.
