About
Acquired Taste is a 3yo bay filly from Australia, trained by Michael Grantham in North Dandelup. She is out of La Mouline and by the stallion Pierro. To date she has recorded one victory, which came on 25th Jun 2026 at Northam when she won the $25,000 Maiden race. She has been a money‑making prospect for bettors; backing her throughout her career would have yielded a 175% ROI.
