Is See It Again still a force?

CAN See It Again finally get an eighth win under his belt? He lines up in a Conditions Plate over 1400m that heads the turf card at Hollywoodbets Greyville on Sunday.

Is See It Again still a force?

It is a race that has attracted many Gr1 Betway Summer Cup contenders over a distance well short of their optimum trip, however, class will always out.

See It Again shoulders top weight and is struggling for his next win, however, he is effective over this trip and is never far back at the highest level.

Roberts

Michael Roberts sent him up for the Summer Cup last year and he was far from disgraced, finishing fifth behind Atticus Finch, beaten just over two lengths but giving lumps of weight to the four in front of him. He will no doubt prefer it further but he has enough class to pull this off.

Former Summer Cup winner Royal Victory. A class act on his day and something of a Turffontein specialist he has had some mental issues, sometime refusing to go to the start and was subsequently suspended. Nathan Kotzen has called in the services of 'horse whisperer' Glyn Redgrave and Royal Victory has since been passed fit to race.

He falls into the same category as See It Again but you take his behaviour on trust. Licence To Thrill has been in excellent form down the Hollywoodbets Scottsville straight for Mike Miller and the form of his last win has been franked. Although in mustard form he takes the turn over an extra furlong and does look to be held given the weight conditions of the race.

Azzie

Adam Azzie has his first runners after his move to Summerveld from the Highveld and saddles the filly Gimmefabulous. She has not been out since May but has obvi ous ability given that she was pitted against the best on the Highveld. She has a light weight to boot and Azzie will be more than happy to get off the mark first up.
