THE QUEENSLAND RACING CARNIVAL IS WHERE CHAMPIONS EMERGE
Last year, Stefi Magnetica and Broadsiding announced themselves as future superstars, while the mighty mare Bella Nipotina dominated the winter on her way to claiming The Everest.
The ladies take centre stage on Oaks Day, with the $700,000 Group 1 feature proving a breeding ground for future champions, including Gypsy Goddess, Duais, and Winning Ways.
One name stands above the rest on the honour roll, as a highly spruiked interstate filly named Winx made her way to the Sunshine State in 2015.
Starting odds-on, the Queensland Oaks will be etched in history as the first of her 25 Group 1 victories, solidifying her status as one of the greatest of all time.
Not to be outdone, the 2024 edition also re-wrote the history books, as Socks Nation stunned onlookers by saluting at triple-figure odds for local hoop Ryan Maloney.
