        Verdict

        Staxton didn't go the pace in the Gimcrack so may find a few too speedy. Enjazaat comfortably landed a Listed contest at Ripon while Invincible Army won a Group 3 at Kempton and has been performing well all summer. JAMES GARFIELD (NAP) looked a certain winner when taking the lead at this trip over 7f at York but was mugged on the line by Wells Farhh Go so should appreciate dropping back in trip and gets the nod. Lansky was around three lengths behind on the Knavesmire and looks held while Nebo, twice runner-up at Group 2 level, disappointed when favourite for the Gimcrack.
