Olympic qualification after Madrid World Cup

After the forth World cup event of the 2008 we can show you the following situations:
Men’s qualification
There are still 2 wild cards and we can suppose 14 (11 + 3) cards in the olympic ranking.
According to our study we are sure the necessary ranking points for taking olympic pass will be not more of 127.
It will probably be 123 or less.
So it’s difficult that less than 30 points in one competition or less than 72 in two competitions could be useful.
Looking at the actual olympic ranking  with more than 30 points (one comp.) or 72 (for two comp.) we can find the following situation:

11 cards of 14 are already sure:
-Walther 175 points and Gebhard 177pt for Germany, Berrou (Fra) 160pt, Benedetti (Ita)153pt, Capalini (Cze)147pt, Meliakh (Blr)135pt, Majewski (Pol) 131pt, Lopez (Esp) 130pt, Prokopenko (Blr) and Weale (Gbr) 125 and Bowsher (Usa) 124pt.

For the resting 3 cards are in pole position the following athletes:
-Cherkovskis (Lat) 121pt, Woodbridge (Gbr) 117pt (79 with 2 comp), Brandt (Swe) 110pt (76 with 2 comp), Tymoshchenko (Ukr) 110pt (73 two comp), Soto 107pt (78 with 2 comp) and Garcia 104pt (79 with 2 comp) from Mexico.
Who have possibility to fight again for the last cards are:
-Zakrewski (Fra) with 46pt (one competition)
-one of these Italian: Simonetti and Pecci with 73pt (two comp), Valentini 38pt, De Luca 34pt;
-Hefny (Egy) with 73pt (two comp);
-Santos (Bra) and Hantov (Bul) with 40pt;
-Papadopolo (Gua) 39pt;
-Sika (Lat) and Romao (Bra) with 38pt;
-maybe also somebody else, without useful points.

Women’s qualification
In the olympic ranking we can suppose 13 (10 +3) cards.
We think that in the women qualification 115 points will be enough for taking the pass for Bejing.
Let's see the 13 hypothetical cards:
-12 are already sure:
Samusevich 168pt and Arkhipenka 154pt for Belarus, Rublevska (Lat) with 152, Dziadura (Pol) 151pt (or Boenisz 145pt) for Poland , Grant (Can) and Grolichova (Cze) with 138pt, Taormina (Usa) 136pt, Tereshuk (Ukr) 134pt, Mouratova (Rus) 131pt, Mathe (Hun) and Rimsaite (Ltu) with 125pt and Sanchez (Mex) 115pt.
-For the last card are now in pole position the following athlete:
 Fakhry (Egy) 106pt.
-Can again try to get her:
Jimenez (Bra) with 73pt (two comp), Lellys (Bra) with 71pt (two comp) and Trautman (Ger) with 67pt (two comp).
