Golden steps
Very lightly raced and highly progressive 3yr old on only 4th lifetime run beating 90+ older horses he could well be heading for listed group races as he progresses through the handicaps.The most interesting thing was the rise in class,yesterday I pointed out the times differences between the 3yr olds handicap at York and the class 4 older horses of which there was little diofference.On this form golden steps has performed way beyond anything in that class 2 yesterday,kickboxer beat golden steps on soft ground at Leicester but was still carrying 15 pound less than 80 rated dark castle yesterday and slower time,today golden steps has beaten 88 rated older horse receiving 11 pound.The improvement must've been expected with this entry as would've been difficult to pick on yesterdays form and times,he just looks massively progressive some of it maybe down to the better ground but will look thrown in against own age group and looks worth following.He may just be running in group races later in season,the only ? I would have would be on proximity of the whole field as only a couple of lengths separated the whole field but was impressive as came from way off the pace where the next three wwre up throughout...
