Te Akau Racing is hugely proud to announce that on Monday, Duchess Kate became Te Akau Racing's 150th winner of the year!
Yes this calendar year, Te Akau Racing in Singapore and New Zealand has recorded a stunning 150 wins! A total of 86 wins in Singapore for the year and (with the year almost complete) 64 wins for Te Akau Racing in New Zealand!
For Te Akau owners it has been a tremendous Singapore season (from 1 January to 31 December) with Mark Walker blitzing the field and claiming his first Trainers' Premiership. We could not be more proud of our Singapore team's achievements.
In New Zealand, the season is almost five months' complete and Stephen Autridge and Jamie Richards have a six win lead on the Trainers' Premiership. Our New Zealand team is on fire!
If you tally up the 2015 wins in New Zealand = 64 so across our two operations that's 150 winners - and almost $6 million in stakes for our delighted owners.
Here is the current standing of the New Zealand Trainers' Premiership following Monday's win - Te Akau 150th for 2015 - by Duchess Kate:
Premierships are based on performances during each racing season (August 1st - July 31st). The jockey and trainer with the most wins at the end of the season are the Premiership winners.
