'fancy' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'truss u-turned over judge' is the wordplay.
'truss u' becomes 'bale' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'turned' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'over' becomes 'o' (cricket abbreviation).
'judge' becomes 'rate' (rating is a kind of judging).
'bale' in reverse letter order is 'elab'.
'elab'+'o'+'rate'='ELABORATE'
