About

Steel Trap, a 3yo chestnut filly from Australia, is trained by T & C McEvoy in Ballarat. She is by King’s Legacy out of Lochita. As a stakes winner with $190,209 in career earnings, she is considered above‑average. On 10 May 2025 at Morphettville, Jamie Melham rode her to her biggest win in the $150,000 Open Set Weight, beating Brave Design. Punters have found her profitable; backing her throughout her career would have delivered an 88% return on investment.
