There were some nervous moments this morning in Winx’s final track work before her final race on Saturday after she kicked a fence.

Waller took the mare’s earmuffs off after her gallop on Thursday as she was presented to the large media contingent gathered to capture her final work-out before the Queen Elizabeth Stakes on Saturday.

The noise from the cameras appeared to spook Winx, prompting her to buck and clip a fence with her back legs.

“She’s very fresh. I shouldn’t have taken the muffs off this morning,” Waller said.

“I just wanted to take them off so you could all see her without the earphones on but as soon as I did she could hear the clicking and the clacking.

“I probably shouldn’t have done that … she’s certainly very fresh but she’s safe and ready to go.”
