Forecasts

Etretat (10/11), Tambourine Dream (4/1), Darkzideofthemoon (11/2), Baritus Bellator (13/2), Daymer Bay (15/2), King's School (17/2), Takes Time (33/1), Old Grey Whistle (50/1), Zelma (80/1)

TAMBOURINE DREAM shaped well when second on her Kempton handicap debut earlier in the month and can build on that promise and go one better now. Etretat has been knocking on the door lately and should be on the premises again, while Ed Dunlop's Old Grey Whistle appeals as one who could have more to offer in handicaps.
