About
Pokuru Gold, a 5yo bay gelding trained by Mark Walker and Sam Bergerson in Matamata, is by Darci Brahma out of Pokuru Nugget. He has secured five career victories, including a standout triumph on 7 June 2025 at Ellerslie, where he captured the $40,000 Benchmark 75 Handicap. Punters have found him profitable; backing him throughout his career would yield a 15% return on investment.
