Cool! Thanks for the link.
That was Winx's 4th Group I win in less than 7 weeks.

Her chest looks like it was carved from granite. The grandstand was rumbling and shaking like the old Boston Garden balcony during a Grateful Dead show. The people looked at her with love in their eyes and in their hearts. Very moving thing to watch last night.

Winx looks for 18 in a row
After getting left by 5 lengths and forced to go 7 wide around the turn, put in a Zenyatta like run, passing everyone, to just get up late. She is a superstar.

Absolutely stunning. Relentless. Have to get Steve to get owner and trainer on. They were absolutely speechless. Hell, I was speechless. On a mission.

That horse is a pleasure to watch. I really like the Aussie racing.

Yes something very special. You have to remember that these aren't $5 k claimers she is beating. To show up every start over a number of years is just wow!!!

Make that 19 in a row
Another scintillating run from far back to catch a loose on the lead who was 5 clear at the 1/16 pole. Wow is she exciting

But she has won 12 G1s in her career, 11 of them against males. She defeated Highland Reel by five lengths in the 2015 Cox Plate. |

To win 19 in a row over a span of years at assorted distances is an incredible feat even if she was beating 5 claimers. Lets not overlook the training job to keep her at the top of her game over that time. She obviously is one the greatest ever to put a bridal on.
