El Picha won the Vodacom Durban July twice in 1999/2000, but if he were to race against the most recent back-to-back winner, Do It Again, who would come out on tops?

El Picha won the Vodacom Durban July twice in 1999/2000, but if he were to race against the most recent back-to-back winner, Do It Again, who would come out on tops?
The only other horse this century – beyond Do It Again – to score back to back July victories
El Picha, the little horse with the big heart and never say die attitude, has died peacefully at his home in Randjesfontein at the age of 22
If it could be possible, I think that second July win was even better than the first.
‘I called the owner and before I could even make the offer he excitedly told me that a certain South African bookmaker had just called 10 minutes earlier to make an offer of R5m’
