Maqaasid faces seven opponents in Group Two feature

John Gosden's Maqaasid will take on seven rivals in the Jaguar Cars Lowther Stakes at York on Thursday. The Green Desert filly was an impressive winner at Sandown on her debut and maintained her unbeaten record in the Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot. She steps up to six furlongs for the first time and meets Michael Bell-trained Margot Did, who was just touched off by Memory in the Albany Stakes at the Royal meeting and suffered another agonising defeat in the Princess Margaret Stakes. Perfect Tribute, Imperialistic Diva and Queen Of Spain - a respective third, fourth and sixth from the Princess Margaret - renew rivalries. The Paul Cole-trained Rimth won a Windsor maiden in the style of a smart sort but will have been off the track for 101 days. Sir Mark Prescott's Hooray and David Evans' Joyously complete the field.
