Steparty Can Follow In Symphony’s Path

Paul Preusker doesn’t have to look back too far in the record books to find a two-year-old with a similar form to his rising star Steparty to know that he can springboard from winter towards the biggest races with his three-year-old colt.

In 2017 Tony McEvoy’s three-year-old colt Royal Symphony put together three wins from three starts in similar style to Steparty.

He won the corresponding race to which Steparty won in 2017 by almost four lengths pulling up at his second start and his jockey Dwayne Dunn said he was as good as any horse he had ever ridden.

Steparty took out the same race at his third start and his jockey Dean Yendall said he’s as good as any horse he had ridden.

Royal Symphony then won the Gibson Carmichael at his next start at Flemington over 1600 metres and it remains to be seen whether Steparty will contest that race.

Royal Symphony then won first-up at Flemington over 1400 metres before he finished unlucky fourths at his next three starts in the Caulfield Guineas Prelude, the Caulfield Guineas and the Cox Plate which was won by Winx where he was ridden by Yendall.Unfortunately, he went amiss after that. Yendall said Steparty is a Cox Plate horse.
