About
Asva is a 7yo chestnut gelding trained by Glenn Stevenson. He is by Capitalist out of First Bloom. As a stakes winner with $519,950 in earnings, he is regarded as a horse of above‑average ability. On 25 February 2026 at Launceston, jockey Jett Stanley guided Asva to his biggest victory, the $250,000 Launceston Cup, defeating Zulu Angel. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 44% return on investment.
