I love when the Surly one calls someone an idiot because he doesn’t agree with him , and in the same post he tells them how smart they are, and that they are better than that.

Do you love it as much as when someone tirelessly states that the result from last year's Breeders Cup Distaff was doctored? Because to me, that's amazing.

Ya every thread anymore turns into dog **** really quick.

Alabama Stakes 10-09-2017 09:48 AM

It was a nice thread about a great hoss. Then Surly knocked her for no reason. Indian Charlie always looking to start some **** chimed in , followed by Surly's little toadie Rock head ten... and that's what you get.

Winx keeps getting airtime. Nice to see horse racing talked about in a favorable fashion on main stream sports.

What happens if she doesn't get in gate? Refund ?

Wins #22 by a long neck in a thriller. Again untouched by the whip.

Kitan 10-28-2017 08:32 AM

Meanwhile, Damien Oliver has been suspended for 20 race meetings (including all four big days at Flemington) for some repeated bumping into and on the first turn. Video can be seen below:

Alabama Stakes 03-23-2018 09:06 PM

Looking for 24 in a row
 
Tonight at 11:45 EDT. they say if she whistles here , it’s off to Royal Ascot . Now that would be really cool. It would really be cool if she came stateside and showed her stuff here too. I hope everyone is rooting for her, though there are a couple who would like to see her get beat like Zenyatta and Songbird.

Kasept 03-28-2018 05:36 AM

Winx staying in Australia: https://twitter.com/cwallerracing/st...44502877245440

freddymo 03-28-2018 05:57 AM

Who could blame them for keeping her in Australia

richard burch 03-28-2018 09:11 AM

I wouldn't leave either. She is the Champ. If some wants to challenge Her let them go there.

Alabama Stakes 03-28-2018 09:23 AM

Black Caviar for one. It would have been nice to shut the doubters up. Small minded owners don't want to share the gift they were given.

gamblin4ever 03-28-2018 11:42 AM

At least the connections didn't wait until the last minute to decide.

King Glorious 03-28-2018 11:25 PM

I suppose she may be better than Mister Frisky.

richard burch 04-14-2018 12:17 AM

24 consecutive stakes races including 17 Group 1's, at distances ranging from 1300 metres to 2200 metres (roughly 11 furlongs).

Just got #25!



Best Female Turf horse ever.

ADJMK 04-14-2018 12:30 AM

Just destroyed a solid field of G1 boys tonight. Look at the lifetime earnings of the first 4 horses and you can't say she's facing bums.
Happy Clapper-$5.9M
Gailo Chop- $3.2M
Humidor-$2.6M
Ambitious-$3.4M

Alabama Stakes 04-14-2018 05:34 AM

And the train keeps rolling. The song remains the same. Lots of happy fans. Maybe one other guy not so happy or impressed. Even implied she was facing no legitimate competition.

Dunbar 04-14-2018 08:28 AM

Great race. Comes from dead last, goes 6-wide on final turn and wins going away.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLL7_EpOPvo

Love the extended overhead view after the start. It gives a much better view of what's happening than the standard nearer-ground level view.

tanner12oz 04-14-2018 11:53 AM

Looked amazing..didnt even break a sweat

goodcopy 04-18-2018 06:22 PM

My New Greatest Fillie/Mare
 
Yes, folks, this Fillie is an all-time great
I think she wins against the boys the grass, the dirt the poly!
She has the same turn of foot as Zenyatta, the stamina of Pharlap, Big competitive heart like Secretariat and the good owner and trainer that take care of her
Long live Zenyatta, Sea Bird II, Rachel A., Azari and all the new Queen and Champ

Winx

Alabama Stakes 08-17-2018 11:53 PM

Looking for 26 in a row
 
8 minutes to post. Very exiting stuff in Oz.

ADJMK 08-17-2018 11:54 PM

Winx back on track tonight
 
For those that are still up 10 min to post for Winx to go after her 26th straight.

ADJMK 08-18-2018 12:02 AM

How many horses hang around to run in a race that was named for them?That has to be a first.
Very windy and hectic conditions tonight.

ADJMK 08-18-2018 12:05 AM

Looked vunerable at top of stretch but powers away for her 26th straight.

Alabama Stakes 08-18-2018 12:12 AM

Looked beat....but this Winx is just crazy good. What a scintillating run. What was she like 8th at the quarter pole and 3 clear at the 1/16 pole ?

Alabama Stakes 08-18-2018 12:14 AM

26 in a row looking every bit the Champion that she is. What a legend.

Just wanted to give the guy who bet $100,000 on her earlier in the week a few heart palpitations.

Alabama Stakes 09-15-2018 12:15 AM

The birthday girl with a tremendous turn of foot to go from last to first for 27in a row. 20 group 1 wins. When she kicks in , look out.

ADJMK 09-15-2018 12:16 AM

Chalk up another one. Didn't look like she was coming and then in the words of Hugh Bowman "The turbo kicked in "

richard burch 09-18-2018 09:08 PM

Incredible animal and arguably the BEST turf horse ever.

ADJMK 10-05-2018 11:05 PM

Back in tonight. G1 $500,00 Turnball Stakes Race 5 at Flemington. Stretching back out to 1 1/4. Race goes around 1.00am EDT or 10.00 PST. Worth staying up for.

knickslions2 10-06-2018 07:11 AM

Another win. 28 ina row

Perspective is never a bad thing.

Just an amazing performance once again, way back, slow pace , with one hoss beaten , no room to run, and looked like the streak was over. If it was anyone else, they would have been off the board. She has a winning gear that she kicks into and mows them down like Zenyatta. What a spectacular animal. They love her so much in Oz.


28 in a row now ...21 grade 1 .... cat got your tongue?

Kitan 10-06-2018 11:01 AM

Last 600m 32.21, last 200m 10.87 :tro:

My heart was pounding so hard. There must have been a couple of heart attacks in oz after that

jnunan4759 10-06-2018 11:44 AM

I have to think she is very aware of what she is doing and enjoys it. She has to be aware of all the fans and her connections and what goes on in these races and after. Tremendously special.
