Lithgow Race 9 - Mark Hughes Foundation Masters
TULSI BANNER (5) ran a good time (17.50) when third a NG at this track after jumping from this box. Worth another chance. GOODBYE MATE (1) was below best at his last start when 6th at Gosford following a win (22.75) at Richmond two back. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Key runner on best form. BOSTON BANNER (4) was strongly fancied last time on the back of a win two back but could only manage second (18.00) at Richmond Straight. Has a strong record out of this box with six wins and two minor placings from 11 starts. Leading chance. FLYING FOR AARON (2) is new to this circuit but warrants respect.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (18.97) over 320m at Richmond. Aided by a low draw and capable of a better result.
