Trained at Kembla by Kerry Parker, Think It Over has been gradually brought to peak fitness this preparation and under a great ride from barrier one by Glen Boss was able to forge clear and win by a length and a quarter over Group I winning mare Nettoyer.

Think It Over is the best of four winners from well bred unraced Zabeel mare Personal Service, a half-sister to Group I winners Universal Prince and Universal Queen.

Personal Service has a yearling colt by Exosphere and was covered again by him last spring.

Think It Over is the 28th stakes-winner for So You Think, who stands at Coolmore this spring at a fee of $38,500.
