Private Life steals the show after inch-perfect front-running ride in Caulfield 3YO feature

WALLER-LANE IN GUINEAS UPSET

Champion trainer Chris Waller had another great day at the Sydney main office with a treble on Oct 12, but it was over in Caulfield that he bagged his biggest win with Private Life springing an upset in the A$3 million (S$2.6 million) Group 1 Caulfield Guineas (1,600m).

Joint-fourth with Feroce in the Caulfield Guineas Prelude (1,400m) on Sept 21, the Written Tycoon colt did not have to improve by many lengths to turn the tables on his victor Angel Capital or placegetters Public Attention and Wanaruah, given the first five finished less than 3/4 lengths of each other, and both races were at set-weights.

However, the boom three-year-old Broadsiding gunning for a sixth win in a row for the Godolphin-James Cummings-James McDonald trio, somehow rendered the Prelude form obsolete to most pundits.
