while Continuous and Castle Way tipped to be the major dangers in Great Voltigeur Stakes at York

With a star-studded line-up of jockeys including the likes of Frankie Dettori, Ryan Moore and William Buick tipped to be onboard multiple entrants, the York Ebor Festival's Great Voltigeur Stakes is shaping up to be an exciting and competitive Group 2 contest.

In what is another small field, the one-mile and three-furlong affair is open to three-year-old colts and geldings - with the John and Thady Gosden-trained Gregory currently the 5/4 favourite with Sky Bet.

The British horse, who is unblemished in his career to date, has beaten respected opposition en route to victories at Haydock, Goodwood and in a group race at Ascot most recently. 

While Gregory will prove tough to beat, there are a couple of thoroughbreds in the field who are perceived as major dangers. Those horses are Continuous and Castle Way, who are attracting odds of 9/4 and 10/3 respectively.

Continuous finished second last time out in the King Edward VII Stakes, while Castle Way is riding high off the back of a three-race winning streak, the most recent of which was a group 3 triumph at Newmarket.

Sky Bet odds for Great Voltigeur Stakes:

Gregory 5/4

Continuous 9/4

Castle Way 10/3

Artistic Star 14/1

Canberra Legend 16/1
