Prix Maurice De Gheest

Did anyone see the interview with Reynier  on @ da races during the week?

Lazzat is clearly a lay at 4-6. Wrong price. Far too short.

lazzat obviously the one to beat but at odds on I gotta take him on  and not a lot of margin for error over these sprint trips may well win but not for me . at biggish  odds  I can have 3 win pops and give myself a chance of a decent payout ok it dilutes it a bit but that's fine by me  I  and sajir not a lot to find on ratings this trip should suit bit to find on form but these sprinters seem to take turns winning and with a good yard and decent prices around 33s on here .also symbol of honour got a bit to find  ascot form but that was on good to firm and he went off at 4/1 that day around 25/1 or bigger on here looks big imo .also a win bet on woodshauna who is in form and may be improving markedly around 16/1 plus on here .good luck all .

rayevka at the odds but suspect fav too good

wd foyles

BoooooooM!

Had to wait since Ascot when was withdrawn but the Chantilly Sphinx is hoooot!

Oh and in the interview on @da races who did JR said he feared at Ascot?

Yeah you guessed!

group one sprint law of sod of last time group one sprint  winner is the 1st you can cross out

thanks Elise a bit of a late post but hope some had some!

First time he’s won the race in his career too! One bullet lick a shot!

Thanks Foyles as usual great write up. I didn’t fancy the fav so did a £5 each way on your woodshauna cheers? But is it me but here or in France and Ireland quite a few well backed favs on these big races have been beaten this year seems to be quite a few is it down to the quality this flat season?

Where is Habibti when we need him? Have we even had sprinters like the present? I cannot even name a sprinter that wins 2 consecutive races.

80 in December…

Discreet in July. Brilliant in August. André Fabre is the man of this early meeting in Deauville. Last month, the coach presented only 36 starters for 5 wins. Was it due to a virus? Or simply a transition period to better prepare for the summer meeting in Deauville? His discretion will not allow us to put these questions into words, but every informed observer has probably already asked himself this question. Because, since the year 1986, never before had the master of Cantilian realized such a timid month of July. On the other hand, never had he experienced such a prolific start to the month of August. On the evening of August 9, he had 13 wins out of 32, or 41% success at the win, with moves of 3 on August 2, 5 and 8…

danaho my take on it is obviously a lot of favs win and many take a lot of notice  what the media /tipsters /write ups tell ya but every race is different and  we know like us they are not  machines so wont run to the same level every time ,to me  and many others its all about the price to chance and there was only about 10 pound between the whole field on ratings and the price of the fav made the odds of  the others look inflated imo. that's the way I try to look at races most of the time the front 3 or 4 will win but not all the time.

so colours,names, nans fav name etc work just as well ?

Form was there and it was mad that he was the outsider of the field.

Was drawn 8 of 10 when Lazzat beat him 2 and a bit lengths over 7f when he was drawn 2.

Sajir has won once over 7f a weak race, trip (distance) and track today were perfect.

A great ride by Murphy from a wide draw.

The form of the race mentioned (Prix Paul de Moussac (Group 3) was franked in the Jean Pratt next time out by Puchkine.

I don't know 1tp I'm saying what works for me on occasions ! I will obviously have more than  my fair share of losers backing at the prices I do . I try to keep it simple I don't bother with times or really detailed form study as I've done all that in the past and done my bollax for years doing all that .obviously I do a bit of research into form but as I usually state in my posts a lot of luck and guesswork required , one thing I stopped doing was taking notice of write ups as I found they could sway you into their way of thinking or put you off something you might fancy with  comments like  needs to find a lot etc . not everyone's cup of tea but there you go.

ah puchkine brings back happy memories !..kerching!

I thought you’d like when I mentioned that!

Well take the winner out and the race went exactly as I expected with Woodshauna just failing to catch Lazzat.
I wouldn’t have backed Sajir at 66/1 given his form so fair play to Fabre and Oisin - maybe there was a better strip of ground up the middle.
Well done Foyles.

And maybe the horse had his conditions today.

thanks uncle and good luck there is a nice looking group 3  the 16 15 DeuVille coming up that looks tempting any opinions

this looks a good race to play a shorties fav who could be anything stepping up in class ,going with  3 decent priced win pokes again and madero looks a big price decent run last time yard in good form around 40s on here .also heyabiti has been keeping top company and this class could suit better 50s plus also if the fav could be anything so could khafiz who has a similar profile and a much bigger price around 17 or bigger on here.prob going to the well to often but am well in front so onwards an upwards .

Very well done, Foyles

wernt to the well once to often ,thanks brandy and good luck.

top pick early on Foyles wd sir

Nice1 Foyles     

Thanks Foyles for your insight…I don’t tend to take much notice of media or tipsters apart from yourself lol… But trainers and owners this year have all been really bullish in my opinion bigging up their horses saying how good their horses are then they blow out but we should be be trusting them to give us genuine honest feedback but this season quite a few best horses I’ve ever had since blah blah have all not lived up to their hype given to them by their trainers just seems a bad season for  all those well established trainers talking up horses who are not living up to their potential…

Dano

Another 4/6 shot last in the race after!

thanks hayden, nec, and good luck.

“I always felt Sajir was the horse to fear at Royal Ascot but, of course, he was withdrawn at the start,” said Reynier.
“When he was withdrawn I felt that was one of the toughest parts of the opposition out of the way, because on fast ground he's a really good horse.‘

bit late but well done on the place uncle and slickster on the lay!

The PRIX DAPHNIS 4:15 where the Haggas unbeaten Scoville 4/6 was trounced,  had been marked in as Opera Bello’s next start, looks like they are ready to go to GP1 as he skipped and is in the Marois next Sunday.

Race yesterday was a G3 currently best price 8/1 with lots to taken out on the 13th

Banged any 27YO Blondes lately Billy Bullshatter?

I had a night and gave her time off to recover but thanks for asking, I backed a rag trained by a master in a Group 1 however!

There is not a poster on here that believes you Dela,including yourself.
A juvenile,Walter Mitty who cannot post a bet

This one wants to play -  I’ll show you mine, if you show me yours!

You’re already obsessed with me!

You are a deluded fantasist as you have already  proved as well as being a proven liar Dela.
Far from obsessed but I despise Bullshatters like you with your juvenile pathetic claims

Carry on, you’re a bore and a failure as a bully! I’ve no need to worry about what anyone thinks of me and at least I contribute to a horse racing forum instead of throwing shat and insults like you Mr Negative!

I’ll add Sajir

Delashay • June 15, 2025 7:57 PM BST

Starts 10     Wins 4    seconds  2    third   1   

The only time that he hasn’t hit the boards is going 7f which they say you need for the 6f @ Ascot


All from the Royal Ascot thread, showing that I’d followed the horse and played him even if I had concerns about the distance on that particular track.

Racing is as much about patience and timing, some have it, some don’t. Painting requires patience, knowing that you can’t rush things and it’s something that I have.

Delashay • June 21, 2025 2:10 PM BST
Good luck Foyles I’d written about him a while back. Fabre great trainer obviously but when he’s continually running him of further than 6f I don’t know!

And I stand by that statement even if he had won over 6 1/2f at the weekend. He was able to get away with it there on the pancake flat track at Deauville.

Murphy backed up that in a way saying this on Sunday : “When I rode him at Newmarket he didn't win by far, but maybe it wasn't his best track.” - That also makes me think that the undulating 6f at Ascot would be a test.

I believe and had said that he should go for the Kings Stand and not the Jubliee at Ascot. I think he’d of hacked up in it this year but as I also said who am I to second guess the master?

Everything I’d said here was said by the racing manger Voute on Sunday.

Delashay • August 10, 2025 3:40 PM BST
Form was there and it was mad that he was the outsider of the field.

Was drawn 8 of 10 when Lazzat beat him 2 and a bit lengths over 7f when he was drawn 2.

A great ride by Murphy from a wide draw.

The form of the race mentioned (Prix Paul de Moussac (Group 3) was franked in the Jean Pratt next time out by Puchkine.

Voute said: “Every time you went back through the form, we weren’t far away from Lazzat and the others, and, with these sprinters, all they need is to have an off day. Today it was our day and everything went right.

So it’s all there and I’ve no need to post my bet and care not if anyone believes me, there’s real analysis and reasoning in black and white for all to see.

I’d asked if anyone had seen the interview with Lazzat’s trainer during the week on ATR where he highlighted Sajir as his danger,

What he said to was reported in the post race report on the Post.

I never tipped him up because I’ll be cattle trucked if I give certain people a winner like that and can anyone really blame me for not doing so?!

Very well done, Foyles.
Great tipping, again.

thanks brandy and good luck.

That’s hilarious Foyles taking credit for a non runner and ignoring  that was put up 5 days before, hey ho!

I don't know what your talking about delash what non runner?

I’m sorry you didnt realise that you’ve been congratulated twice!

still don't get it ,what am I missing?

I’ve quoted you on the day of the race where you put up Sajir as your fancy for the Jubliee, you’re being congratulated for doing that!
(You’d already been congratulated at the weekend by the same bod). X2

Anyways the sun is shining and lunch has been had so back to it!

ok got ya now

Cool! I was surprised Sunday that you didn’t just in on him as I remembered you liked for Ascot.

I was keen on him but do like to have a plan b or even a plan c as was the case .

I do like the yard and think or hoping I am getting to know how they work .

No worries fair enough, I love it when they go off big, they’ve fav for every maiden if there’s no Aga runner and no value.

Fabre’s been using Demuro more lately and wouldn’t be surprised if he takes over the Godolphin colts for him.

No reo,y! re joins its safety net after giving it large!

Musta been a long day on the busses realising that saying you despite someone who you don’t know from Adam sounds extreme!

it’s no wonder you retreat to the pack that don’t back you up when you try to give it!

I can see where Harry Enfield got his character Kevin from,you adolescent halfwit Dela

There has been a lot of after-timing down the years on this forum.
But this is on a different level.
Vile stuff.

A SPECiAL DEDICATION - your theme tune!
