The most recent runs tell a similar story. A ninth-place finish, two fifths, and three blank results make up the recent record, suggesting a horse that occasionally finds its way into the frame of the race without ever threatening to win it. At six years old, Golden Order is no longer a young prospect finding its feet — this is a horse that has had time to develop and has now faced the test of seven races without breaking through.
What makes this interesting, in a sobering sort of way, is the consistency of it. Some horses have one bad spell and bounce back. Golden Order has simply never had the good spell to begin with. It raced just one day ago, so the team clearly believes there is something worth persisting with — and occasionally, horses do find their level and surprise everyone. For now, though, Golden Order remains one of racing's more stubborn puzzles.
