Winx has left us with our hearts in our mouths, jaws on the floor and wonder in our eyes. What a remarkable career. We salute you Winx. DONCASTER MILE, 2016 Think about this for a moment … 1in Winx’s Doncaster win she gave Happy Clapper 6kg. That is 8kg before the mare’s allowance, and she was only four-years-old too. After settling down with just three runners behind her, Hugh Bowman was niggling the daughter of Street Cry approaching the 600m but once she squeezed through the pack halfway down the straight, she strode clear to win by two lengths going away. Bowman admitted he was as worried as onlookers in the run. This was the day Chris Waller conceded he had a champion on his hands. RIGHT: Hugh Bowman salutes the crowd after Winx’s epic Doncaster Mile victory in 2016 GEORGE RYDER STAKES, 2017 Breathtaking. Winx made a habit of 2winning this race but none were more dominant that the 2017 edition where she annihilated a field that included Le Romain and Chautauqua, with nine Group Ones between them. The wet track certainly played into her hands but after she idled up the leaders at the 400m it was just a matter of margins. It was 7.3 lengths in the end.
