Is it appropriate to message current trainees to ask for advice on the assessment centre?
Lots of people do this so I don’t see it as an issue. If the trainees can’t or don’t want to give you advice then they will likely either not respond or just say that. But there is no harm in asking as long as you do so politely.

Has anyone heard from Ashurst?
From what I’ve seen on the forum, Ashurst have done all their AC’s. Some people have received VS offers and some are still waiting to hear back the outcome post AC. If you haven’t heard back from Ashurst post app, they will be sending their PFO’s out on the 28th (pushed back from the 14th). I’m not sure which stage applies to you though. I applied to Ashurst for their WVS this cycle and they told us we would hear back by the end of Nov and that was the day they sent out all the PFO’s. 🥲🥲​
