Icario has run well in second in his last two maiden hurdles but may be set to fill that position again as he takes on FREE RANGER. Noel Meade's charge finished second in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse last time, and though it still remains to be seen how the form will fully work out from that it was a pleasing debut over obstacles and he can progress to get off the mark here. Ilikedwayurthinkin appeals most of the newcomers.
