CopyBet BOG Now Royal Ascot Friday Handicap Hurdle (Div 1)

Off time: 17:12 | Winning time: 3m 49.67s

Latin^h⁵⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: J J Burke| T: James Owen| OR: 100

10/3

Better known for all-weather exploits (already won 4 times this year) but brought along steadily in this sphere and appeals as a likely improver now handicapping on the back of fourth placings in 2m novices at Hereford and Ludlow. Likely player.

Form: 0/44-

Bamber¹⁰⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: A King| OR: 97

10/3

Has shown some promise all 3 starts since switched to hurdles, fifth of 12 in 2m Taunton novice in March. Likely seen in a better light now going into handicaps after a break.

Form: 65/665-

Ufouria^t³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: C Gethings| T: A Ralph| OR: 96| D

13/2

Yet to add to her bumper success in this sphere but she posted a good third of 7 in handicap hurdle at Ludlow (2m) last month. No forlorn hope.

Form: 47640-3

Tara Iti⁶²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: James Best| T: F Brennan| OR: 95| D

40/1

A fair 2m hurdles winner for James Owen last June but yet to fire for new stable and retried in a visor when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Hereford (2½m) 62 days ago.

Form: 45656P-

Crown Of India²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Bryan Carver| T: A M Hales| OR: 93| CD

11/4

Capitalised on a reduced mark to bag 6-runner handicap hurdle over C&D 20 days ago. Back up 4 lb but he's expected to be bang there.

Form: 7P56-91

Genbu¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Charlie Price| T: S-J Davies| OR: 89| D

10/1

Keen-going sort ended a losing run at Uttoxeter (2m) in May and backed it up with a solid third of 5 in handicap there (2m) 13 days ago. Possibilities.

Form: 680-313

Aquifolia^h²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Harriet Tucker⁽⁷⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 84

7/1

Remains winless but she comes here on the back of a respectable fourth of 6 in handicap hurdle over C&D 26 days ago.

Form: 7246B-4

Silent Revolution^h1,t²¹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-7| J: Callum Pritchard| T: B J Murphy| OR: 79| D

28/1

Former Paul Nicholls inmate who hasn't shown much for some time, including both runs for his new yard at Chepstow and Cartmel this spring. First-time hood now tried.

Form: 5/6P77-0

Forecasts

Crown Of India (11/4), Bamber (10/3), Latin (10/3), Ufouria (13/2), Aquifolia (7/1), Genbu (10/1), Adaay Dancing (12/1), Silent Revolution (28/1), Tara Iti (40/1), Leading The Way (50/1)

LATIN was a four-time winner on the Flat this winter and looks primed for an improved showing in this sphere now going handicapping on the back of a patiently-ridden fourth at Ludlow. He gets the vote from recent C&D scorer Crown of India with Bamber and Genbu appealing as the pick of the rest in the battle for minor honours.
