About
A Fine Chardonnay is a 3yo bay horse from the United States trained by Ian R. Wilkes. He is by the stallion Maclean's Music out of the mare Andele. To date, the horse has recorded three wins. On 4 April 2026 at Keeneland, A Fine Chardonnay captured its most valuable victory, taking the $400,000 Middleground Capital Beaumont Stakes. It has been a profitable runner for bettors, and wagering on the horse throughout its career would have generated a 230% return on investment.
