Winx won every single one of her last 33 starts, including a world-record 25 Group 1s. She has been very unlucky as a brood mare

She was sent to dual Australian champion sire I Am Invincible for her first cover in 2019 but tragically lost the foal late into her pregnancy

She was given a year off to recuperate from the life-threatening trauma before being sent to Pierro, a proven source of top-notchers, and she produced a filly from the mating in October 2022

Winx was sent to breed-shaper Snitzel that southern-hemisphere season, but failed to get in foal, and so the Pierro filly is her only offspring to date, which obviously makes her a priceless asset

Sensationally, she has been put on the market at the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale and her date with the auctioneer, during the second session of the sale on Monday, April 8, is fast approaching. It is widely expected that she could be breaking all the records at the sale

The only negative is that Black Caviar and Makybe Diva, two other outstanding Australian champion females this century, have produced little of note

Winx was covered by Snitzel again last southern-hemisphere season, after failing to get in foal to him the year before. Her owners keep her pregnancy status private and give only sporadic updates but Kepitis does confirm that the last scan was positive
