Trainer Rex Lipp has decided to spell top Queensland mare Tinto, ruling her out of the rest of the Sydney autumn carnival and the winter races in Brisbane.

Tinto had been expected to contest the Group One Queen Of The Turf Stakes at Randwick on Saturday after sound runs at her past two Sydney starts in the Coolmore Classic and Guy Walter Stakes.

However, Lipp felt the mare wasn't performing to her best and made the decision to end Tinto's Sydney campaign and send her to the paddock.

"There is nothing wrong with her but I wasn't entirely happy with the way she was going," Lipp said.

"It was only prolonging the agony to continue on with the Sydney campaign. She has been up since last September so she has done a wonderful job really."

Lipp said Tinto would return in time for a spring campaign.

"There are some good mares' races for her in Melbourne in the spring," Lipp said.

The four-year-old has won five of her 19 starts including last year's Group One Queensland Oaks.
