About

French Navy is a 4yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Symon Wilde in Warrnambool. He is out of the dam Madame Margaux and by the stallion Astern. To date, French Navy has recorded one victory. On 24 July 2025 at Warrnambool, he captured his biggest win, taking the $37,500 2yo+ Maiden Set Weight. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 38% return on investment.
