October 23rd, 2014 by Pom de TurfGai Waterhouse, Australia’s First Lady of Racing, has come close to a Cox Plate win a couple of times in the past, only to see worthy runners from her stable beaten by genuine champions.

But Waterhouse has never had things all her own way in Australian Racing, and why should the 2014 Melbourne Spring be any different? Matching her pace for pace and winner for winner is Chris Waller: with a very good weekend under his belt last weekend and a trio of horses looking good in the Racing odds after it, could it be that the 2014 Melbourne Spring is shaping up to be all about Waller?
