True Spider Identification?

[-Sarah-]

I really want to say this is a wolf spider of some sort, I haven't been able to find out much about it? Whatever she is, though... She's pretty We were tilling the ground for our garden yesterday and her burrow must have been tilled - miraculously, she survived. I tried to get some nice macros of her, I've never seen a spider with red on either side of the chelicerae like this. Any sort of ID or suggestion would truly be appreciated!

Thanks for the ID, Widowman! I still have her; she's a little jumpy but she's a beautiful spider. I made the mistake of letting that Australian Huntsman go last summer, I'm not going to make that same mistake twice
