The funny thing is that Viewed won the Brisbane Cup brilliantly in the winter and Wayne Wilson mistakenly called it as Bart's 250th G1 win, forgetting that the race had been downgraded to G2 this year. Well, now here we are 5 months later and Viewed DOES give Bart his 250th G1 win.
Also ironic that when the Brisbane Cup was a 3200m race, it was a pretty awful guide to the Melbourne Cup, but the first year it's run over 2400m, it produces the winner.
