Warren Kennedy rode a double at MataMata today to go to 82 wins for the season at a strike rate of 18.8%.

His stakes earnings for the season to date are NZ$3,962,113.

That is the equivalent of R45,683,162.

Those earnings can be compared to the R24,700,325 he earned in his last SA championship winning season.

For interests sake the leading SA rider in Hong Kong this season, Lyle Hewitson, has had 19 wins and earned the equivalent of R97,014,968 in stakes.

Kennedy remains on top of the New Zeland premiership and is now nine wins clear of reigning champion jockey Michael McNab.

Earlier in the week he was in a studio interview discussing the differences between New Zealand and South African tracks and how he has adapted.
