SELECTIONS - 30 January 2008

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

Cheltenham 4-1 Go Sandman [13]

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

Cheltenham 7-2
Cranbourne 7-2
Hawkesbury 3-11

(* Any updates at Ascot later on *)

Comments: There's no doubt that Cheltenham 4-1 Go Sandman is the best of a pretty ordinary bunch. Whether he can lump the 59.5kg and give 2kg+ to the field remains to be seen and I'd want e/w odds to have a go.

Black Book: Hawkesbury 8-3 Cheekybynature won with something in hand at his first run before an even 5th over the same course before a spell. We'll see how good he is at this start. Cheltenham 7-2 Allsons ran around like Roger after a rare St Kilda win at his first start at Gawler but showed a heap of potential and went into the black book, which paid immediate dividends when he thrashed them next time out. He then tackled harder company than he meets here and I expect him to win at good odds.
