The dazzling First Lady of horse racing. And she sure does dazzle. 

Gai Waterhouse is a force of nature who defied the odds and broke through every barrier known to become one of the most celebrated trainers in the sport's history. She was born into racing royalty as the daughter of legendary trainer Tommy Smith, and she not only inherited a love for horses but an unyielding determination to make her mark.

She takes Howie through her journey to obtain her trainer's license, which was nothing short of a saga—battling industry scepticism, legal challenges, and even public doubt. But Gai's resilience was unstoppable. She blazed a trail that led to a stunning array of victories, including the coveted Melbourne Cup.

With her trademark flair, boundless energy, and an infectious passion for the sport, Gai goes through it all!
