Sky Calling has begun to show signs of getting her act together again and is dangerously well handicapped if she does. True Blue won at Towcester last month and Agricultural trounced the in-form Tinseltown by nine lengths at Uttoxeter so has to enter the argument. Folk Tune does most of his winning in claimers and sellers nowadays, however, while All That Remains looks one-paced and four-year-olds Shalloon and Dubawi Dancer don't exactly look thrown in. ROBBIE was all out to beat Thegaygardener over C&D last time but the runner-up won his next race by 10 lengths so there's a chance the eight-year-old is still well treated. He can score again as Prankster looks to be in the handicapper's grip now.
