  Consider the standard action of $SO(2)\times SO(3)$ on
$\mathbb{R}^5=\mathbb{R}^2\oplus \mathbb{R}^3$. We establish the existence of a
uniform constant $\mathcal{C}>0$ so that any $SO(2)\times SO(3)$-invariant
Ricci soliton on $\mathbb{S}^4\subset \mathbb{R}^5$ with Einstein constant $1$
must have Riemann curvature and volume bounded by $\mathcal{C}$, and
injectivity radius bounded below by $\frac{1}{\mathcal{C}}$. This observation,
coupled with basic numerics, gives strong evidence to suggest that the only
$SO(2)\times SO(3)$-invariant Ricci solitons on $\mathbb{S}^4$ are round. We
also encounter the so-called `pancake' ancient solution of the Ricci flow.
