Verdict

THE HOUSEKEEPER makes her debut over fences and looks one to follow. She jumped well and made all to beat Taglietelle over hurdles at Down Royal and had earlier scored very easily at Fairyhouse so could have a big future. Third Opinion hasn't had much luck so far but that will change and the progressive six-year-old looks a big threat. Gallant Tipp makes his chasing bow and will find this competition more to his liking than racing in Grade 2 company over hurdles. He's well bred for this job and looks a threat as does point-to-point and hurdles winner Subtle Ben, another making his debut over the bigger obstacles after an eye-catching run over timber at Punchestown.
