About

Fringill Dike, a 9yo chestnut, is trained by Jedd O'Keeffe. The horse is by Mahler out of Credo Star. To date, Fringill Dike has secured nine victories. Its most notable triumph came on 22 Aug 2024 at Newton Abbot, where it won the £13,709 Newton Abbot Handicap Chase. The runner has been a solid value for bettors; backing it throughout its career would have yielded a 2% ROI.
