Starfinch
Starfinch is a three-year-old that has won once from eight races, taking a success at Southwell back in January before an extended spell without victory. The horse has earned two places alongside that single win, giving it a record of 1-2-5, and recent outings suggest form is hard to come by — across its last six races it has finished sixth, sixth again, thirteenth, third, ninth, and then unplaced. That third-place finish is the only real highlight in the sequence, but nine months have now passed since Starfinch last tasted the winner's enclosure.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Trained by Harry Eustace at Newmarket, Starfinch is part of a yard that has been productive this season, with 24 winners already sent out. Eustace clearly has horses capable of winning regularly, so Starfinch's drought raises questions about where this horse sits in the pecking order — it may simply be that it lacks the class of the yard's better performers. At just a 12 percent win rate from its first eight races, Starfinch has not yet found a level at which it wins with any consistency. The horse was active just a day ago, so the yard are still campaigning it, but finding a winning race is becoming the pressing task.
