We stopped at Main Street Cafe in Waverley for lunch. They had a pleasant garden area.

Next door, on the street was a life-size statue of a racing horse and jockey. It turns out the horse Kiwi was reared in Waverley and made racing history:

At the turn of the Flemington track, with 500 metres remaining, Kiwi was positioned as the second last horse. …

Upon approaching the final straight, Kiwi began to advance through the field. At the finish line, Kiwi won the race by just over a length.
