SELECTIONS - 8 August 2008

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

Geelong 5-7 Test Century [1]
Geelong 7-1 Husspirata [18]

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

Canberra 7-6, 8-8
Geelong 4-7, 6-6, 9-1
Gunnedah 2-1, 3-7, 6-4
Sunshine Coast 5-4

Comments: Geelong 5-7 Test Century resumes from a spell for a new stable and probably won't find a much easier race to break his duck in, as there only look to be a few chances. We haven't had a System 1 selection for a little while and it's got a good record so fingers crossed for this one, which might go around at OK odds. Geelong 7-1 Husspirata has always shown some talent and finally broke through at this track at his 10th start over 2000m last time out. Settled back in the field, made a long, searching run around them 1000m out and kept the run going to beat Catlist. That horse came out and won at his next start so the form should hold up here and I expect him to go close to winning.
