David Pipe is having a hot -streak over jumps and Mr Tambourine Man could be thrown-in for the staying handicap at Salisbury (7:40). Beautifully-bred for the flat, he didn’t cut it for Ballydoyle, unplaced in three starts over seven furlongs. The gelding has shown to be useful over hurdles and landed a second win, last week in a handicap hurdle at Exeter over 2m 5½f. He has been re-assessed with a hurdles mark of [117]. Rated only [58] on the flat Mr Tambourine Man looks capable of getting off the mark on his first attempt at a staying trip. The booking of Tom Marquand is another positive:

Salisbury 7:40 – MR TAMBOURINE MAN – 1 point win @ 9/4 (several firms)

Pipe also saddles Red Happy at Ludlow (1:30), who was a winner for us two starts back and has a good chance of completing a four-timer. But this looks a tougher assignment against stronger opposition, so although he looks to be the standout on the card, will leave at the price.
