SELECTIONS - 17 December 2006

POOMA selections:

Ballart 4-13 Midnight Flight

Non-POOMA selections (and ruffies in red below):

Ballarat 7-4, 8-5

(* Updates after Bunbury scratchings etc before race 1 there *)

Today: The POOMA comes from a system with a 50%+ strike rate. Coming off a country run into a Provincial race is not generally ideal but this system keeps on keeping on so what do I know? Nothing else really grabs my fancy today what with the wet tracks and poor races.

Yesterday: 2/8 yesterday for a 3.8 unit loss but I'm still crying buckets over the defeat of Rubiscent at Sandown, which copped a huge check at the 400m when squeezed out between runners before getting to the outside and flashing into 2nd spot as a $9 shot. Not only did it cost me the quaddie but also the First4, as the roughie that won, Test Fire, is a horse I've been following lately (and he was a winning POOMA two starts back). That must have cost me $10K easily.
