Trainer Comments:
Champion trainer Justin Snaith seeks back-to back Met triumphs when he saddles a quartet of runners in this year’s premier race. The charismatic trainer was kind enough to comment on the preparation of all his runners and was especially bullish about the favourite and also reigning champion Oh Susanna. He had the following to say:

“Do It Again seems to be in cruise control, everything is going according to plan and he will be a tough nut to crack. Oh Susanna’s prep has also been perfect, she is spot on and is one of the horses to beat. I’m very happy with Made To Conquer, he should be spot on too and the blinkers could make a difference. Doublemint is another one of my horses having their third run after a rest and although he has a tough task at the weights, he is still a horse on the up.”

Winning Form – Magic Tips Comment:
DO IT AGAIN had a remarkable recent triumph over a mile in the Queen’s Plate and last season’s July victor has had the ideal preparation coming into this prestigious contest where he will love the step-up in distance on his peak showing. He has cracked a midfield draw and should take all the beating.

Verdict: Brilliant last triumph, prefers this trip, peak run, tough to beat.
