Winx set to light up the spring

Can the champion take out the Turnbull Stakes?

Wonder mare Winx lines up for her 28th consecutive win on Saturday in the Group 1, $500,000 Turnbull Stakes.

The world’s top-rated racehorse will be aiming to win the Turnbull Stakes for the second year in a row, to continue her campaign to win a fourth Cox Plate later this spring.

Four-year-old Grunt will be laying down the challenge to Winx having won three of his four starts at Flemington including two Group 1 events, the Makybe Diva Stakes and the Australian Guineas.

The Group 1, $500,000 Spring Champion Stakes comes live Randwick with favourite Thinkin’ Big jumping from barrier seven, with Dealmaker and Aramayo set to push the colt.

Hosted by Bruce McAvaney with Hamish McLachlan and Jason Richardson, along with colour reporting from Abbey Gelmi at Randwick and Emma Davenport at Flemington.
