Verdict

CAPTAIN HANLEY hasn't had things go entirely his way since bumping into a subsequent winner on his Clonmel hurdling debut and could well be the answer arriving on the back of a creditable effort on the Flat. The drop in trip is a concern for Facile Ocean given how he's been shaping but he still has leading claims on form nonetheless. Newcomer Digby Bridge also warrants a close look in the betting.
