    Not quite a plunge but backed Yala Enki today with Hills.

    Soft or heavy ground would be a major bonus, in fact he probably needs this just to be declared.

    He's only just about to turn 8 years...

    Aye.

    FWIW, Yala Enki is the one I've highlighted for a plunge next Saturday in the chase at Ascot. I reckon 14/1 is a knocking each way price.

    Aye I won't be having the mortgage on by any means, I've been on a poor run truth be told. This is too open to go in heavy on something like Foxtail Hill, although I'm clearly more than happy to...

    Points taken Danny but he wasn't at peak form last time, imho. His style of racing is to wear his heart on his sleeve and to do everything from the front. I feel these really genuine types often find...

    Good luck with Le Prezien Danny I can't put you off its just a personal preference for me with Foxtail, I want to see him run the legs off these. Hopefully his arse will appear smaller and smaller to...

    I watched that race again and still feel the same. Jamie Balgary set a hell of a gallop and rode Foxtail from the front for all he was worth, saving precious little for the climb up the hill. As I...

    I should have been more specific, Danny. I reckon he was value for more in terms of the beating he gave Saphir.

    It's the actual horse he's stuck his neck out to beat (Le Prezien) that looks...

    Furthermore, he kicked half a dozen lengths clear of Saphir three from home at Chelters in January, and thus possibly kicked for home too soon, to only win a length. Maybe it was a race-winning move,...

    There's a possibility he is better than the winning margins suggested when he beat Saphir and Le Prezien, (especially Saphir). If he'd beaten those two by a bigger margin, I'd argue he'd now be rated...

    Think it relates to his front running style, Ivan.

    'He's good with too much rope', alas, he's good if other jockeys allow him too much of an easy lead.

    Err, I mentioned Rory earlier on the thread, if that's what you are referring to. He just gave me a personal opinion (I believe) that the horse is handicapped to the hilt. I'm not sure if that's what...

    Sporting interest will have to be on Foxtail Hill. After mentioning Slash Of Ginge six weeks before the Bet Victor then abandoning him nearer the race, I couldn't bear it, if Foxtail Hill won and I...

    Well Luke, it hasn't won yet, but I hope you got 10/1 on Clan Des Obeaux. That looks a value price, right-about now.

    I've gone off Foxtail Hill. He's stagnant in the market at 16/1, looks to be...

    Yeah.. I'd go along with this.

    Nothing much tickling my fancy this weekend, so I've tried to find the right one for next Saturday.

    I'm not sure about this you know, Danny.
    He finished midfield in 8th, was hardly pulled up, and he'd beaten Saphir before on soft. Possibly he had hard race when beating Le Prezien? Nigel Twiston...

    I don't see how Foxtail Hill can get any bigger than 16's, Danny.
    The price can only go one way, imo, and that's shorter, but a lot depends on who participates, who is actually declared, which...

    Yeah, I realised my mistake shortly after posting, I wish I'd had a headmaster like you when I was 13!
    Thanks for your feedback, Danny. I'll get back to you.

    Caspian Cavier Gold Cup 16th December, Chelters

    This looks like one of the best possible renewals since this races inception several years ago, and worth a thread of its own.

    Waiting Patiently tops the anti-post market at 8-1.
