Winx
What are people's thoughts?
I personally love watching her race and she has amazing ability to turn it on when needed.
I know there are lots of critics about who she has raced etc, but what a record and now the richest ever in prize money

Re: Winx
People easily get jealous of such an amazing record. Best I've seen, and Bowman never really needed the whip.
My beef is with local TAB paying out $1.00 win and $1.00 a place over its last 5 or 6 starts. It's bordering criminal. Those odds should only apply if the entire pool was invested on her, which clearly it never was.

It won (joint?) horse of the year, a world-wide recognition, so it's like coming equal with Messi in football terms.God is an Englishman wrote:Yes it does, at the moment its only a good horse in australia.

Re: Winx
Yeah, probably be outright winner. If it were my horse, I wouldn't risk a long trip either. Didn't do Black Caviar many favours, even though she won o/s which shut a few up at least.God is an Englishman wrote:Bomber wrote:

Black Caviar was the same time as Frankel. probably the best race horse ever.
