Title: Winx Figures
Post by: APny on March 04, 2019, 08:49:46 PM
Does anyone know if thorograph made Australia figures, what range number Winx runs?  Not looking for anything precise but does she run negative figs or does she runs 4s or 5s.  I have no clue but really curious as to how she\'d stack up against US competition.

FWIW - Winx\'s sire is Street Cry, and he has sired some others who run as fast as any.

She was really tested in her last and I\'m not sure speed figures are definitive when the racing style is to gallop around and then sprint like crazy the last few hundred yards.

Certainly a lot better than 4s or 5s. They can run down there.

Given the setting I\'ll add a \"fwiw\", but Winx\'s best Timeform rating last year (134) was equivalent to Gun Runner\'s Pegasus and Enable\'s Arc.

Throw in her \"Oh, what the hell! I\'ll just wait all day then loop the field again\" style, and you gotta believe her TGs would be ok.
