About
The Coolakin King is an 8yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Ray Malpass. He is by the stallion Demerit out of the mare Wahkeena. To date he has won nine races. On 13 Sep 2025 at Carnarvon he captured his biggest victory, taking the $30,000 Mt Augustus Tourist Park Spr. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 57% return on investment.
