On the topic of famous legs - Betty Grable’s were the most famous 😊
Heidi Klum has insured her legs for $2 million (each!), James Bond star Daniel Craig has his body insured for $9.5 million and Jennifer Lopez thinks her famous derriere is worth an incredible $27 million.

Racing: The greatest race mare of them all, Winx, has lost the foal she was set to deliver this month.

The greatest race mare of them all, Winx, has lost the foal she was set to deliver this month.acing super mare Winx has lost her first foal.

The greatest race mare of them all was set to give birth to her first foal this month.

But her owners confirmed today Winx had lost the foal.

It is with great sadness that the Kepitis, Tighe and Treweeke families wish to inform everyone that unfortunately overnight Winx lost her foal, the statement said.

There are so many people involved in the Winx story from owners, staff past and present to her many fans around the world. Our thoughts and attention at the moment are on Winx ensuring that she remains healthy, as anyone in this situation would respect.

It is a traumatic time for a mother and those involved and Winx is now the centre of our attention following the loss of a beautiful filly this morning.

We wish to thank everyone for their support and understanding, please respect the connections during this sad time and we will update you as soon as appropriate.https://www.news.com.au/national/breaking-news/racing-the-greatest-race-mare-of-them-all-winx-has-lost-the-foal-she-was-set-to-deliver-this-month/news-story/9dbfd75c69bbeb6b5162deb0a6ef7188

I feel as much for her as I do all the other poor mares losing foals on a daily basis, some of which are lucky enough to be offered fosters whose dams have died foaling Cry
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything, it's too late to stop reading it.

What's additionally disappointing is that she appears to have lost the foal in the last month of her pregnancy, by which time you'd be excused for thinking she'd be virtually home and hosed.

At least there's no doubt she'll be receiving the best of medical care, and will hopefully come up trumps in later years.

Yeah.  Mate,s foal died after about 36 hours..   Dummy.  
Was on a stud today.   Watching the preg tests of the mares.   One mare had 3 possible babies in there !!!!
Its quite scarey what can happen with these mares and their foals.

I keep wondering … WHY???

She’s a problem breeder, this is the only live foal of 3 attempts, they don’t need the money, and even if the filly is a dud, wouldn’t they keep her?

I get the impression there was no unanimous decision & if so, it's the only option.
"It was a group decision, it wasn't made by one person," Tighe said."

Do these people race any other horses together ?

I would notbe surprised if one of the current owners buys the filly or if not by default runs up the price attempting to do so.

Thank you both.
I read somewhere that Tighe is interested in getting a share of the filly, while Kepitis was quoted as being all boohoo sad … if so why didn’t he/she just buy the others out for, like, eleventy million? I’m clearly simple Embarrassed

Maybe they think champion mares never produce much, so cash in the chips and laugh all the way to the bank ?   Just my take on it.
Not like any of them are hurting for dollars .   So why dont the ones who want to keep her buy out the ones who dont ?  Confused
Probably too easy for these people to work that out between themselves because they would all be looking for that  $$$$.
