Champion mare Winx joins Sunline and Black Caviar as the only three horses to be inducted into the Australian Racing Hall of Fame while still racing.

Winx is one of 11 new inductees into the Hall Of Fame which also includes jockeys, trainers and associates. The other horses inducted this year are Saintly, Light Fingers and Archer.

Unbeaten at her past 17 starts, Winx is in the spelling paddock ahead of a spring campaign aimed at winning a third successive Cox Plate.
