Mark Walker became the only trainer to win back to back Group 1 Kelt Capital Stakes - this is an outstanding accomplishment. There have only been two $2 million races staged in New Zealand and Mark Walker has won them both with Princess Coup. Mark has now trained three Kelt winners, more than any other trainer. Princess Coup also became “New Zealand’s Leading Horse of All Time” by stakes won in New Zealand. Her career prize money of $4.23 million makes her Encosta de Lago’s highest stakes’ winner.
Te Akau was New Zealand's highest stakes' earning stable again in 2008/09 - with $3.71 million earned in New Zealand which is a stable and New Zealand record for domestic stakes’ earned. Yet another record for the stable was also established in 2008/09 with Princess Coup breaking the $4.23 million mark in career prize money thus becoming the highest stakes' earning horse Te Akau has trained.
