Champion mare Winx will be heading to Royal Ascot if everything goes to plan according to trainer Chris Waller.
Waller gave his strongest indication yet that the 3x Cox Plate winner would be heading overseas when speaking to RSN 927’s Matt Stewart on Saturday morning.

“If she wins the George Ryder by three lengths, and the Queen Elizabeth by two lengths she’ll be on the plane,” Waller said.
“She will go if she’s 100 per cent.”
Winx is back in Chris Waller’s stable with the build-up to her next challenge well underway as she prepares to jump-out in a barrier trial at Rosehill next Monday.
“She had a gallop this morning and I came back [from the Gold Coast] to watch it specifically, so I was pretty happy with the way she worked,” he said.
“She’ll have two more gallops and then trial in nine days’ time”
Winx is likely to begin her campaign on February 17 in the Apollo Stakes before tackling the Chipping Norton Stakes (March 3) and the George Ryder Stakes (March 24).
