Race preview
ROCKBROOK brought off a gamble at Galway in October and has prospects of posting another victory. The form of that race in Ballybrit is working out well and he will enjoy the forecast testing ground. Dark Note showed up nicely in third in a higher grade at Thurles before Christmas and he has form in the book on attritional ground. Diamond Nora is up in class, but the form of her Limerick success has been well franked. The more rain the better for Whiskeywealth, who actually won a rated novice chase on this card two years ago.
