Just a modest tempo anticipated. Not much to this race but it's open. PROPRIETARY (10) ran third at Sandown Lakeside two back which reads well. He was well beaten at Cranbourne last time but should find this easier and can bounce back. BIG STORY (2) was near the tail at Caulfield in a stronger race when last seen but had been going okay prior and should run well here. ALMONTI (8) was a winner two back at Geelong before another sound effort in a small field. In the mix on his home deck. TEWKESBURY (17) has run second at both runs this time in and might be able to give a sight. REBADGE (4) is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Proprietary on top.
