The all-male team of Richard Herrera and Richard Hardin who call their tandem 'The Riches' since they share the same first name Richard, did not fail their fans' expectations by winning the last leg of the 4th Season of the Amazing Race Asia.


"The Riches" has been an early favorite because of their background in sports. Both had played the American Football League before. Richard Hardin currently works as a Pro Basketball Player while Richard Herrera is an actor and a model.

The long-time friends were just one of the two teams that represented the Philippine in this season of the Amazing Race Asia. The "Party Girls" composed of Jacinta James (Jess, 27, Tattooist) and Lani Pillinger (27, Model) also managed it to the top 4 and also won 3 legs.
