Hello, sports.

HG Nelson with a quick update on today's bludge.

Look, everybody needs a day off every so often and the bludge is no exception.

So enjoy these highlights.

Some new, some old.

Take it away, sumpster.

one of the biggest races of Queen Elizabeth's Stakes, won by Think It Over.

And this was a daring ride by Natural Wheeler, who thought that the better going would be out wide.

So about the 200 metres from the winning post, he haired off on Think It Over to the outside fence and won by a few lengths, or a couple of lengths.

Wow.

It is.

He'd walked the course, obviously spoken to people who knew how the drainage worked on the new Randwick surface and so on.

Well, that's a brilliant win.

It was.

It was the race of the century, provided the ride of the century and also gave race goers the shock of the century as the forgotten horse in the field.

Yeah, right.

You often say that, the bet on the forgotten horse.

I think it over won the race.

Now, it was a bit of a...

you know, cause for controversy connected with the race.
