The 2017 Ladbrokes Cox Plate betting markets have Winx at the shortest priced since Phar Lap in the 1930s as she looks at her third win in the classic, but how do the statistics on favourites in the weight-for-age event stack-up?
Chris Waller’s freakishly talented and versatile Street Cry mare has won her 21 past starts on the trot and will join Black Caviar on 15 Group 1s when she heads to The Valley in Saturday’s Group 1 $3 million Ladbrokes Cox Plate (2040m).
She’s been firing on all cylinders again after a couple of early spring hiccups that gave the punters are scare, flawless in her first Flemington assignment winning the Group 1 Turnbull Stakes (2000m) by over six lengths.
With everything picture perfect since, her affinity with the high-pressure Cox Plate race and tight Moonee Valley track, the ideal barrier six draw and the punters on her side Winx has come into $1.16 at Ladbrokes.com.au to join Kingston Town with the three trophies.
The only other runner in the nine-horse Ladbrokes Cox Plate field getting any kind of attention from the punters is the Tony McEvoy-trained three-year-old Domesday colt Royal Symphony ($21 into $16).
Obviously Winx is the pick to salute in the Cox Plate results on the weekend, but below we look over the historical data to see how the favourites before her have fared.
