SELECTIONS - 17 October 2007

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

Northam 3-3 Le Bon Jeune [23]
Northam 6-9 Gallivanter [23]
Northam 7-1 Eclusier [23]

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

Caulfield 3-7
Murray Bridge 6-7, 8-10
Northam 5-4, 8-3

Comments: Northam 3-3 Le Bon Jeune has run three good placings in provincial class with a duck egg in the city first up. He might be a chance today but With The Ring, which beat him home clearly in that city run, seems hard to beat. Northam 6-9 Gallivanter is probably best suited over slight further but this is not a hard race for him first up. Northam 7-1 Eclusier doesn't have much of a winning record with just 2/25 but is always thereabouts so should be a chance with The Pontiff to ride.


Black Book: Caulfield 3-3 Greatwall Of China thundered home to win at his first start before running a distant 3rd in what has turned out to be a strongish form race from MV. Got home hard first up at Bendigo and the step up in trip looks ideal. Caulfield 6-1 Jestatune had absolutely no luck last time out in the Edward Manifold and looks very well placed to run a good race. Absolut Glam also had no luck in that race and must be a fair chance, too.
