An unexposed four-year-old, LAUBERHORN ROCKET has enough scope to go close again despite a 5lb rise for winning at Kempton. A chance is taken that he acts on the Fibresand given the weakness of today’s opposition. Dolly Dupree and Harry The Norseman have placed in testing ground recently and the former won over a mile here back in February but Blowing Dixie returned a losing favourite on her first start for a new yard and debuts at the track. Albert Boy can race off a much lower mark on the all-weather given he’s yet to win on an artificial surface in 14 previous attempts.
