Goulburn Race 11 - Mark Hughes Foundation
SKETCHY STORY (1) is a promising dog in the frame at seven of 17 starts including five wins and was in the minors again latest (20.04) over 340m at Bulli. Has a good record at this journey. Drawn the fence and expected to go close. AUSSIE BLEND (7) flew the lids from out wide with an impressive turn of foot before finishing second (22.54) and beaten half a length over 400m at Bulli. Expecting another good run. MISS TESS (2) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 6th at Nowra following on from a second place finish (22.70) at Bulli the start prior. The form out of her last race has been franked. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. BLACKPOOL BUDDY (4) will make his presence felt following a brief layoff.

Had been racing in honest fashion, recording four placings in a row, before finishing sixth (21.18) at Nowra last start. Has a low draw but will need everything to go her way.

Found the going tougher last start when second over 350m at this track. That followed a win two back in 18.39 beating Miss Goldie over 320m at Richmond. Not far away last time but this is a stiff test.
