Why do they ask Gai Waterhouse?

Firstly I have won as many Melbourne Cups as Gai Waterhouse.

She has shit me for decades. She has done nothing in the Melbourne Spring Carnival. A few weeks ago one of her horses won a Caulfield Cup, her first one. Seriously she has no idea how to train horses for Melbourne. She should stick to the Autumn Carnival in Sydney.

When she wins a Melbourne Cup I might listen to her bullshit ramblings.

Post Race Update:

Gai continues her amazing streak. No doubt Channel 9 will be crossing to her for all the action. I do not know why. how did her big chance go:

Descarado did not finish.

Isn't she from a family of horsebreeders and racers?

Yes she is. her father was TJ Smith who was a legendary trainer.

But she has won only 9 of her 46 Group 1 races in Victoria in 7 seasons.

Hard to compare to http://www.bartcummings.com.au/g1.asp

264 winners mostly in Melbourne.

Gai will always be a "media darling" for the horseracing industry. She is an articulate boss cocky female in a male dominated business and that is publicity gold.

Geoff,
Yes a media darling is one thing. I do not get why she is called upon during the Victorian Spring carnival when she cannot win a cracker.

Being different is one thing but being succesful is another.
