Fascinating renewal laden with proven Grade 1 quality. Cape Town Met winner SEE IT AGAIN ran well in defeat when a fast-finishing 2nd in a recent 1600m Grade 1 on his Highveld reappearance. On that evidence, he will be hard to beat on these terms over this extended trip. FIRE ATTACK has a bit to find on that form and won't be done any favours from his No 11 draw but should acquit himself well in defence of his title. THE ULTIMATE KING and OLIVIA'S WAY are closely matched so shouldn't be far off. Recent Grade 1 winner GRAND EMPIRE and runner-up TRUST may pose a bigger threat in receipt of weight.
