mardigras Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 The person that put $200k+ on her will hope the run continues! Savvy is available at 200s+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savvy is available at 200s+ 200s probably about right though I wish Ray and Jill, Pitty, CWJ and co the best of luck. Whether Winx should be $1.30 ish is another question.

Newmarket Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Looking at those races at moonee today, nothing really coming from the back. Will be pretty special if she wins it, mind you, small field helps. GO WINX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve owned a few MV winners and you shouldn’t get caught on the fence. in saying that, I hope they leave her in OZ...they’ll be a nice race for her in the Autumn. Is she as good as Lucia Valentina? Not sure, But she deserves a crack at a good mares race. She really can’t enhance her value in NZ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kakama Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 What next for her....surely her last race not far away. Waller looks bloody stressed out after each race Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it hard to believe that NZ's best is that much behind AUS's. In saying that AUS's best is at least 3 lengths shy of the champion WINX. She is unbelievable. I watched her win and was so engrossed watching her that I missed the first quarter of the All Black test! She looked in great heart after the race and looked like it had just been a training canter.

Kirwan was bang on the other day with his comments about a revamp for super rugby, ditch it and get back to parochial provincial stuff and have a few Aussie teams in our league. Would rather watch Waikato playing Canterbury than Chiefs playing Crusaders. The chiefs have been a no identity side since inception, having been a mix of Waikato, Counties, Northland, North Harbour (I think, not sure on that one), BOP, Taranaki. its no wonder no one is interested.

Weasel Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 The oppo have had 29 chances to beat her.. not a single horse has done so, at the highest level ..not at Randwick or Rosehill or Flemington or Caulfield or Moonee Valley, good tracks, bad tracks, and everything in between ...good draws, wide draws,c et ...running handy or running back, coming through the field or over the top... Winx has demonstrated not just a WILL TO WIN but a physical ability to win under all conditions, distances (to 2200m) and track conditions. She is the best we will ever see. She has nothing left to prove. I would have loved to have seen her in Dubai or at Royal Ascot or Longchamps ..but fully understand why she hasn't travelled to find the best of the rest. She has trounced those that came Down Under to knock her off her perch. She is the Queen of the Turf, bar none. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Stipe Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 I know it is hard to compare champions from different eras but she is at least equal with the top if not the best of all time. We subsconciously tend to downgrade her wins because of the ease she wins by. But look back at some of those she has beaten but not just beaten has put away. Multiple group winners who have gone on and won millions in stakes in their own right. The only thing she lacks is the physical presence of some of champions gone by. She must have one helluva motor inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew she was going to winbefore the race, I knew it 100% at the 800m, she was travelling beautifully and looked ready to pounce. As much as I worshipped Sunline and a few others, she is the best I have seen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLB2.0 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Would love to see her run against a top class miler, but that will never happen. That's at no fault of her own and I can't blame connections for wanting to run for big money on their home tracks. However, in years to come, I can guarantee you Chris Waller goes to sleep thinking that he had a horse good enough to travel and she never left the country. Imagine seeing Winx line up against Enable, Cracksman, or any of the top-rated horses in the world. It would be a sight rarely seen, but the money is simply too strong in Australia and it's not like the owners are short of a penny. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
