About
Too Darn Finesse is a 4yo brown mare from Australia, trained by Kris Lees in Gold Coast. She is by the stallion Too Darn Hot out of Zerenda. She has earned three wins, the most significant being the $30000.00 Class 3 Hcp at Coffs Harbour on 7th Aug 2026. Punters have found her profitable; a career‑long backing would have generated a 303% return on investment.
