The recent form figures of 3-6-6-4-6 are honest rather than exciting. A couple of mid-field efforts, one near-miss in third, and two finishes at the back of the field. There is no obvious upward curve here, and nothing yet to suggest a breakthrough is imminent.
What works in Golden Prince's favour is the trainer. Christian Williams operates out of Ogmore-By-Sea on the Glamorgan coast and has sent out 23 winners already this season — a yard clearly in decent form. When a stable is firing like that, even the horses still searching for their first win are in good hands. Williams will know this horse well by now, and if there is a race out there that suits Golden Prince, he is well-placed to find it. The horse ran just yesterday, so the yard — sorry, the team — are clearly keeping him busy and looking for opportunities.
For now, Golden Prince is a horse in search of his moment. It has not come yet, but with an active yard behind him and another race presumably not far away, the story is not over.
