Steel Trap (AUS) Horse
About
Steel Trap is a 3yo chestnut filly (female) from Australia trained by Tony & Calvin McEvoy, who is based at Ballarat. She is sired by the stallion King's Legacy out of the dam Lochita. Given that she is a stakes winner and has amassed $217,709 in career earnings, Steel Trap is regarded as a racehorse with above-average ability. On 10th May 2025 at Morphettville, Steel Trap was ridden by Jamie Melham and scored her most significant win to date, getting the money in the $150000.00 2yo Open Set Weight, defeating Brave Design. She has proven a profitable horse for the punters over the journey. If you had backed Steel Trap throughout her career you'd have achieved a 85% return on investment.
