West Mdlands polices have said Mrs Winnall’s condition is critical but stable.
Det Ch Insp Sab Johal said: "Local people hold the key to finding who is responsible for this terrible attack."
Police said items of Mrs Winnall's clothing have been sent away for fast-track DNA analysis.
Forensics experts are assessing her injuries to try to determine what implement may have caused them, a spokesman said.
West Midlands Police said the motive for the "senseless" attack remains unclear.
