A point-to-point winner in May, Wings Of Icarus makes his debut under Rules and is one to note along with racecourse debutant Presenting Arms, who also represents a powerful yard. However another winner between the flags, MINELLA FOR PARTY, showed enough when third at Ffos Las last month to suggest he's up to winning one of these and he gets the vote. Cavite Gamma was sent to to Cheltenham for his first start last month and could prove best of the rest with that experience to call on.
