War Command is in the shake-up for the richest ever running of the Irish Thoroughbred Marketing Gimcrack Stakes at York on Saturday 24 August.

One of the most impressive winners of Royal Ascot's Coventry Stakes in recent memory, Aidan O'Brien's unbeaten colt could face a rematch with Richard Fahey's Parbold, who finished six lengths adrift in second.

The entries for another of the Group Two events at the Welcome to Yorkshire Ebor Festival see many Ladbrokes St Leger aspirants featuring in the Neptune Investment Management Great Voltigeur Stakes.

The race has already supplied 13 subsequent winners of the final Classic of the season and the top three in the betting could all turn up on the Knavesmire.

Those are O'Brien's Queen's Vase hero Leading Light, another Royal Ascot winner in the shape of the Sir Michael Stoute-trained Hillstar, and the dual Derby-placed Galileo Rock, among 18 Irish entries.

Libertarian, who won the Dante at the course in the spring before finishing runner-up at Epsom, could have the chance to prove his disappointing effort in the Irish Derby was a mere blip on his first outing in Godolphin silks.
