Zarathos
Zarathos has come alive in recent months after a long spell without a winner. The 4-year-old's career record reads modestly — 2 wins from 23 races — but the timing of those victories tells a more encouraging story. After breaking his duck at Windsor on 7 May, Zarathos won again at York just eight days later, suggesting he had finally found his level. Since then, form has been less straightforward. In his last six outings, he has finished in the placings four times, including a runner-up finish most recently, but has also recorded two double-figure finishes that hint at inconsistency. Still, winning twice in ten days hints at a horse worth watching once the pieces align.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Trainer Dylan Cunha, based at Newmarket, has built a competitive yard this season with 45 winners to date. Zarathos's recent form suggests Cunha has identified the right races for him — both victories came outside the top-level Class 5 races where the horse has struggled to show up, with no wins from eight attempts at that grade. The gap between his last win in mid-May and his continued racing suggests Cunha is keeping him active and searching for another winning opportunity. With form lines showing consistent placings and a horse still keen enough to run just days ago, Zarathos remains a live contender for a barn that knows how to target him effectively.
