7) SEE IT AGAIN 3/1
SEE IT AGAIN tops the betting boards ahead of the 2023 renewal of the Hollywoodbets Durban July. This Michael Roberts-trained colt will have four-time HDJ-winning jockey Piere Strydom doing the steering when the gates crash open on 1 July. A multiple Grade 1 winner, recently taking out the Daily News 2000 and the SplashOut Cape Derby, the three-year-old son of Twice Over held off a number of his HDJ competitors on those occasions. Certainly the one the beat.
