This looks like an open affair but TANGRAMM was highly progressive last season and he may be able to build on a recenet comeback run where he ran well for long way, shaping like he needed the run. He's down in Class and taken to resume his progress. Talented claimer Tyler Saunders claimed his first winning ride last time out and he reunites with his winning partner Clovelly Bay here. He beat a smart type and they pulled clear of the field that day so he's potentially well-handicapped. Hermann doesn't have many miles on the clock and even though he disappointed as favourite last time, he's likely to still be in form and should prove better than that run. 1. Tangramm 2.
