am not sure what i'll play but will include Winx in exotics - she may be a true great (maybe already is!)- waller is a premier trainer - 2mnd choice is a godolphin's Hartnell - yeah he just won the Turnbull but that wasn't a very good field - odds on arazel coming down - probably because of trainer tony mcevoy who knows how to place his horses - also coming down on Institution 0 - my original ls pick - am, a big fan of his trainer smerdon!

Think Winx wins this. Because it's Aussie - LOL - am, playing the Frenchie - Vadamos. Know the jock lover is playing Baster's horse who will be huge odds but then she played Kathy last year. Have to wake Ev at midnight. She likes the Goldolphin horse. CC and I both take Winx over Goldolphin's Hartnell.

She is amazing. Made it look easy.

Awesome Winx blitzes Cox Plate again

Winx sealed her status as one of the all-time greats of Australian racing with victory in Saturday’s William Hill Cox Plate at Moonee Valley.

The Chris Waller-trained mare joined Hall of Famers Sunline, Tranquil Star and Flight as mares to have won the weight-for-age event more than once when she backed up last year’s win with another dominant display.

The $1.80 favourite’s eight-length margin over Hartnell eclipsed the previous record of seven lengths, held by Dulcify and Sunline.

Yankee Rose ($13) was back in third spot.
