We prove that the pullback of the SU(n)-soliton of Chern class $c_2=1$ over $\mathbb S^4$ via the radial projection $\pi:\mathbb B^5\setminus\{0\}\to\mathbb S^4$ minimizes the Yang-Mills energy under the fixed boundary trace constraint. In particular this shows that stationary Yang-Mills connections in high dimension can have singular sets of codimension 5.
