... and it was. Makybe Diva won her third Melbourne Cup in a row. It was an amazing run - she held back and then you could see her charging through the field, white blaze on her forehead (that's how I could tell it was Makybe Diva) and roaring across the finish line. Glenn Boss, her jockey, was overcome with emotion as he spoke about her effort, and even managed to get some swear words into the broadcast interview. (Maybe Magistrate Pat O'Shane is right - maybe community standards regarding swearing have greatly relaxed. I'm not sure I agree with it though.)
Luckily, I had drawn Makybe Diva in one of the office sweeps, and Sooz and I were able to dine out on the proceeds last night.
