Winx is an amazing horse. She sits back, goes wide and wins. Sometimes she doesn't even look like she is trying. She is truly a great mare!

Wiiiinnnxxxxx... Jesus I was in tears after watching her win. This is the first time I have seen her being chased won the stretch and she had to extend her stride in order to stop Humidor from catching up. What a race from Humidor, he was flying towards the end and really gave it his all. Winx, the most beautiful horse I have ever seen.

I can't stop watching this. What a race by Humidor! The final sprint when he lowered the head and lengthened his stride was absolutely phenomenal. It propelled him forward like he was wearing a jet pack; you could really feel the desperation. If he could hold that speed just a little longer there was a slight chance he could have caught up to Winx. Wew... What a race, and Winx what a champion!

One of the best finishes I have seen to a Cox Plate - awesome run by Humidor. A great champion up against a great challenger. As far as Cox Plate finishes go, this was right up there with Our Waverley Star v Bonecrusher finish in 1986. To those tools who reckon she's not up to Euro G1 standard, name the horse, name the track...Winx will beat the shit out of anything.

The race caller was epic lol

You could see the intensity kick up a notch when Winx was in third, that horse deserves it.

She's a goddess. There will be critics, but 22 in row is indisputable.

Never in doubt. Bowman was peeping under his shlder while Humidor was trying and Hugh was punching the air with 20m to he knew nothing was getting past. Lol. #winx.🐎 LEGEND-IMMORTA

Oh god that was AMAZING! Thankyou for posting!
-
Amazing in the end how Winx could sense the occasion to speed up to prevent being overtaken by Humidor. Just a fantastic horse. Miss her.

Lets keep the debates clean and respectful. I know we can get excited defending horses we like, but lets appreciate all of them. Winx, Enable and Cracksman are all Super horses, lets give them all respect without insults. Appreciating these horses is a lot better than insulting them because of nationality reasons or insecurity.

Ice cold Bowman! With the look over the right shoulder... championship stuff 👌The great mare with a big challenge today!

If that doesn't get your heart going... then my god I dont know what will ❤Ⓜ️

'The great mare completes the great trilogy of the turf'. An incredible race, the Queen emulates the King. And the best part was she had to really fight for it this time. Humidor had an amazing run. Will always remember this race :)

This horse defines Australia. Absolute champion that is easily the best in the world currently. Every time Australia surpasses UK in sporting quality they are left only to criticise.
