Australian racing legend Gai Waterhouse is confident multi-million dollar colt Storm Boy can silence his doubters and provide the trainer's first win in Saturday's $20 million The Everest (1200m) at Randwick, the world's richest race on turf.
Waterhouse and co-trainer Adrian Bott will saddle Storm Boy as one of the key chances at odds of around $11 in the most open Everest of the event's seven-year history, and on the first occasion the slot-holder race will have status on the top rung of international race classifications - Group 1.
