Trainer Michael Roberts is confident his dual Group 1 winner See It Again can bounce back in the G1 Cape Met at Kenilworth on Saturday after a disastrous last-start defeat.

The Hong Kong Jockey Club will simulcast The Cape Met along with six other races from South Africa's iconic raceday and with better luck See It Again could be right in the race.

See It Again finished last of 13 in the G1 King's Plate earlier this month but had excuses. "The whole race didn't plan out as we anticipated," Roberts said. "Unfortunately it was just a complete mess from the start."
