Marine Boy will bid to keep trainer Tom Dascombe’s bandwagon rolling when he lines up in the Irish Thoroughbred Marketing Gimcrack at York.

Dascombe claimed Pattern-race victories with Classic Blade and Firth Of Fifth at Newmarket’s July meeting and believes Marine Boy could be just as good following a facile success on his racecourse bow.

The One Cool Cat gelding will not have things all his own way, though, with eight rivals also lining up on the Knavesmire.

Aidan O’Brien relies upon Peter Tchaikovsky, while Mark Johnston runs supplementary entry Weatherstaff.

Dabbers Chief, Deposer, Jobe, Saxford, Spinners End and Tagula Breeze complete the line up for the six-furlong event.
