Winona Award – Proudly Sponsored by IRT

Pixel Perfect (Art Major USA – Amarillen) has been voted the 2018 Australian Broodmare of the Year.

Owned by Robert Watson, Pixel Perfect’s 2018 Broodmare of the Year title follows her mother Amarillen’s win in 2017. The family, originating in Tasmania, also includes Group One winners such as Miss Graceland, Nostra Beach and Villagem, being one of the most prolific pacing families in the Australian Trotting Studbook.

It was a remarkable year for Pixel Perfect, leaving three individual Group One winners in Soho Tribeca (WA Pacing Cup), Carlas Pixel (Ladyship Mile) and Soho Nolita (Australian Pacing Gold).

Her five winners for the 2017/18 season won a total of 26 races and $1,203,339 in prizemoney.

The unraced Pixel Perfect has had five foals of racing age for five winners for total career earnings of over 2 million dollars – an amazing achievement.
