Group 1 winning trainer, Kerry Parker is a hands on trainer with a genuine and contagious passion for his sport. Drawing on three decades of experience as a strapper, jockey and trainer, Kerry is an authentic 'horseman', giving him invaluable insight into the fitness and ability of each of his charges. This has paid dividends in the past where Kerry has been able to identify potential in horses where others had not, as exemplified by Don Raphael.
Owners also enjoy unrestricted access to Kerry who makes himself available at all times to answer their questions and keep them in touch with the progress and plans of their pride and joy. He also has a keen eye for yearlings and is willing to accompany a potential owner to the sales ring or purchase on a client's behalf.
Kerry Parker is by no means the biggest trainer in the game, but his accessibility, affable nature and hands on approach, ensures that his owners' racing experience is an enjoyable and successful one.
Amongst other many reputable acculades, Kerry reached the pinnacle in all trainer's careers, being Group 1 success, in the Channel 7, Queensland Derby in June 2018. Kerry was represented in the race by star 3 year old, Dark Dream. Kerry guided Dark Dream from a Maiden win at Moruya to Group 1 success in a single preparation. Dark Dream was well-loved by all at the stable and all the team played a crucial part in enabling the All American gelding every chance to attain glory of Group 1 success.
The Derby was thrilling and, happily, Dark Dream was able to bring Kerry home the well overdue trophy he had so long deserved.
Kerry was able to add to his Group 1 success on Saturday 27 March 2021 after Think it Over secured a win in the Group 1, 2021 George Ryder Stakes over 1500 metres at Rosehill Gardens. Glen Boss took the ride and was able to win in impressive fashion on Think it Over. Kerry has done a remarkable job with the 5y/o son of So You Think, Think it Over especially in this preparation after Think it Over was able to secure a win first up in the Group 3 Liverpool City Cup and an impressive 2nd in the Group 2 Ajax Stakes 2nd up before taking out the Group 1 George Ryder Stakes.
