Default Magical Mare Farewell

One for Road: Winx Goes Out With 33rd Straight Win

It was a perfect day and she was the perfect racehorse, but now her job is done.

On an afternoon of near unprecedented expectation, adoration, and emotion,
the racing wonder that is Winx

She left the stage in style, bidding goodbye to her fans
with one last virtuoso performance.

There are questions that can never be answered, truths we can never know, such as where Winx ranks in the all-time pantheon of great horses.

What can be said for certain is when she was first to cross the finish line of the Longines Queen Elizabeth Stakes (G1), Winx put the seal on a uniquely glorious career, one that has made her a true icon of Australian sport.

Each and every one of those present at Sydney's Royal Randwick racecourse would testify to that.

Tears flowed freely from those who have been at her side for so long as they realized that after four years of invincibility,
the final line of the final chapter had been written.

No doubt "WINX" is great. She proved it 33 straight times. Next to her from Austrailia comes "PHAR LAP" just my opinion.
