The Winx Stakes has been run basically at 1400m since its inception bar for a brief period in the 1930s.

It was previously known as the Warwick Stakes when it was a Group 2 race all the way until 2018 when it was upgraded to a Group 1 and renamed after the champion mare.

Winx winning in 2016 was her tenth win in a row as part of her amazing sequence and then her 18th in 2017. The 26th in a row was also her third consecutive win in the race.

Pablo's Pulse won the race in 1987 at 500-1. Samadoubt was an upset at 30-1 in 2019 but wasn't that big a roughie.

The 2007 race was not held due to the Equine Influenza break out.

Many a horse's Cox Plate campaign has begun in this race and naturally that is true of Winx wins.

The 2017 edition was remarkable after Winx was fractious, banged against the barriers just before the jump and missed the start by four lengths. She took a time to wind up but just got up.

The 2022 Winx Stakes was run for prizemoney of $750,000.
