A progressive home track three-year-old can arrest a long wait for a third career win at Monday’s feature Albury meeting.
Super Sunny Seeya had no luck resuming at this track on June 7 in a Benchmark 58 Handicap when trapped wide all the way.
That day he carried a hefty 60.5kg, but drops to 56kg for this next test, with Jack Martin taking over in the saddle.

Popular local trainer Rob Wellington has also rebooted the gelding’s campaign with a string of gear changes, including blinkers going back on, for a competitive Class 3 Handicap over 1000m.
By prolific sprint sire Rubick, Super Sunny Seeya was earmarked for big things when he easily won twice in his first prep early last spring.
Yet since then, amid plenty of luckless and near misses, things haven’t gone to plan.
About $3.80 across early markets, Super Sunny Seeya is one of several leading local hopes who are out to turn back a record number of Victorian runners crossing the border for a Monday meeting.
Naturally, at the pointy end is the rival home-track stable of in-form Ron Stubbs, who will be eyeing off another potential double.
Tough three-year-old He’s My Warrior is also overdue for a second career win having placed in his last three, twice at the provincials before just missing at this track after being heavily backed from $4.20 into $2.80.
