About
Twilight Steps is a 5yo bay gelding from Australia trained by John Johnston on the Sunshine Coast. He is by the stallion Sidestep out of Twilight Reef. To date he has captured two victories, the most notable coming on 30 Nov 2025 at Sunshine Coast when he won the $30,000 Promo Gear Maiden Hcp. Over his career he has been a profitable choice for bettors; backers would have earned a 3% return on investment.
