Decorated Australian horse Winx to be formally honoured with movie documentary – with her incredible 33 consecutive wins – including 25 Group One races – a key focus in the film

Decorated Australian racehorse Winx will be honoured with a movie documentary which has successfully captured her extraordinary career.

‘A Horse named Winx’ tells the inspirational story of one of Australia’s greatest sporting champions, who became a national treasure as she won 33 consecutive races.

Janine Hosking, the movie’s director and producer, said bringing Winx’s story to the silver screen has been a ‘labour of love.’

‘I remember my Mum [Lorna] told me one day ‘you have to watch this amazing horse, Winx’, who kept winning her races,’ she told News Corp.

‘From that moment, I became fascinated by the sheer juggernaut of Winx and her story.’

Aside from her race record of 33 wins in a row – including a staggeirng 25 Group 1 victories – Winx also secured $26.4 million in prizemoney (pictured, jockey Hugh Bowman)

Hosking interviewed the likes of Winx’s trainer Chris Waller, champion jockey Hugh Bowman, plus the mare’s owners Debbie Kepitis, Peter and Patty Tighe – and all were on board in terms of a movie.

The film documents Winx from when she was an emerging foal to an eventual sporting phenomenon.

During Winx’s reign, huge crowds descended on racetracks around Australia – including Royal Randwick and Flemington – to witness the Phar Lap of the modern era.

She managed to snare 33 consecutive wins, a record which will probably stand the test of time.

Winx nearly died when her first foal was stillborn, but she slowly recovered and eventually gave birth to a healthy filly by Pierro.

The filly was later sold for a staggering $10million at the Inglis Easter Sale in Sydney last month.

Previously, the sale record for a yearling filly was $5million for a half-brother to iconic racehorse Black Caviar in 2013.

Aside from her race record of 33 wins in a row – including a staggering 25 Group 1 victories – Winx also secured $26.4 million in prizemoney.

She also won a record four consecutive Cox Plates between 2015 and 2018.
