Un-named (A Lot – Fail Safe)

We inspect hundreds of horses at a yearling sale, and quite often, the one you really should buy is the one you’re still thinking about that was 20 or so horses ago. This is that horse. Not only that, but when I got together with Ascot trainer Dan Morton before the sale commenced, I found that she was on Dan’s short list as well my own. Had we have gone head-to-head in the auction, she would have ended up at twice the price, but Dan left me to do the bidding on her, and in my opinion, at just $30,000, she was the best value buy of the day in the Book 1 session of the 2025 Magic Millions Perth Yearling Sale.

A Lot was an outstanding racehorse, breaking the 1400m US record on turf. His progeny includes the WATC Derby winner A LOT OF GOOD MEN, the brilliant stakes winning juvenile SIR DREAMALOT and stakes performed horses Costume Party, Odinaka, Alotofbanter, and the 9-time winner Fast Flicker etc. This filly is a half sister to Megami, whose 5 wins to date include 4 on city tracks, earning her over $256,000 to date. This filly is eligible for the WESTSPEED PLATINUM BONUS SCHEME and will be paid up for the MAGIC MILLIONS PERTH RACE SERIES too. And of course, she’ll be trained at Ascot by Dan Morton who had this to say about the progeny of the stallion: “We have some of the A Lot progeny in the stable (American Escape, Net Zero, Golden Opera) already, and they’re all doing a good job for us and their connections, so I was keen to pick up another couple this year.”

It’s fair to say that there’s probably not a more inexpensive way to find your way into Dan’s stables than this filly!
