Ross

oxbridge

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'blues won?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'steer game' is the wordplay.
'steer' becomes 'ox' (a steer is a castrated ox).
'game' becomes 'bridge' (card game).
'ox'+'bridge'='OXBRIDGE'

'where' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
