SELECTIONS - 20 February 2007

POOMA selections (Location Race#-TAB# Horse [system/s])

Rockhampton 8-5 Shifting Sands [10]

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

Ascot 6-3
Benalla 5-8, 7-4, 8-5
Rockhampton 3-1

Comments: No selections yesterday and I was just thrilled to stand out the non-POOMA in the last leg of the quaddie at Swan Hill and to run 2nd when it was paying $16K. I was tied up and didn't get the chance to protect the result, which I would normally do. Rockhampton 8-5 Shifting Sands comes from a system that looks poor but it's not far below its expected strike rate so I'm sure there'll be a good priced winner come along shortly. This one looks like a $5 shot and has been in consistent form though isn't weighted that well against horses like Endorphin and Danwana. 3-1 Dust Haze up there went into my black book when winning his Maiden. He showed talent and then won again before finishing 8th and going for a spell. He might be e/w odds, which I'd suggest is a good bet. I'll go 1x2 at $4.
