Sit back and enjoy the greatest horse of all time on Saturday
HORSE RACING: Winx is out to create further history this weekend, as she lines up to try to win her third successive Cox Plate.
Only one horse has achieved the feat before, with the legendary Kingstown Town winning the race from 1980-82.
It helps you realise how good this mare really is.
She was being knocked earlier in her preparation after not winning by margins we have been accustomed to, however the times always indicated she was going as good as she has ever been.
She's easily the best I've ever seen, and I doubt we'll get one close to her level again.
THE Manikato Stakes is the other highlight of Moonee Valley's big two-day carnival, which has become a drawcard for many interstate visitors.
Vega Magic looked to be unlucky in The Everest, and with any sort of luck she should be far too good for this field.
CHARITY BET OF THE WEEK
Passage Of Time - Randwick Race 5 No.8:
$50 at $4.80
Laying the very short- priced favourite Stonebrook here, as I suspect he may be vulnerable dropping back from the 1550m to seven furlongs.
The form through Passage Of Time's narrow last-start fourth is strong, with Osborne Bulls, In Times Of War and Slow Burn all Saturday-grade horses.
