About

Aksil, a 4yo bay gelding, is trained by S & K Alexander in Te Awamutu. He is by Ace High out of Savasong and has won two races so far. On 31 January 2026 at Ellerslie, he claimed his biggest triumph by winning the $55,000 Benchmark 65 Handicap. He has been a profitable horse for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 1% return on investment.
