About
Fighting Idol is a 6yo chestnut gelding from Australia, trained by Neil Hocking. He is by Fighting Sun out of Rock Idol and has recorded six career victories. On 2nd Jun 2024 at Kilcoy, he claimed his most notable triumph, winning the $35,000 Benchmark 65 Handicap. Punters have found him profitable; backing his whole career would have yielded a 91% return on investment.
