And look at this great,
and the grey breaks from the lunch!
Well,
they can throw away the cameras for this one.
It's gun-send again.
We cheered him from the grandstand,
and we cheered him from the flat.
We cheered our little beauty,
a real aristocrat.
He's never thrown the towel in,
but a try all the way.
A horse we're really proud of,
the gun,
the windy grey.
Robbie Goultham to Randwick,
and from there to Flemington.
He chased the Tolleck record,
winning hearts with every run.
He made it in October on the Mooney Valley track.
Went past the Post of Glory,
with Higgins on his back.
We cheered him from the grandstand,
and we cheered him from the flat.
We cheered our little beauty,
a real aristocrat.
He's never thrown the towel in,
but a try all the way.
A horse we're really proud of,
the gun,
the windy grey.
A
Tuesday in November didn't alter how we feel.
Oh,
we might have torn up tickets,
but we got an honest deal.
If there were cups for courage,
you could trot him up for one.
For if it could be measured,
I'd say he had a ton.
We cheered him from the grandstand,
and we cheered him from the flat.
We cheered our little beauty,
a real aristocrat.
He's never thrown the towel in,
but a try all the way.
A horse we're really proud of,
the gun,
the windy grey.
Oh, we'll miss him, that's for certain.
Now his saddle's put aside.
But round our track of memories,
Gunsing will always stride.
A-swinging round the corner,
and then laying back his ears.
The champ from Gun,
the windy,
with the champs of other years.
Yes,
we cheered him from the grandstand,
and we cheered him from the flat.
We cheered our little beauty,
a real aristocrat.
He's never thrown the towel in,
but a try all the way.
A horse we're really proud of,
the gun,
the windy grey.
Yes,
a horse we're really proud of,
the gun,
the windy grey.
