QIPCO 1000 Guineas heroine Legatissimo tops the stellar list of 11 entries for Saturday’s Qatar Nassau Stakes at Glorious Goodwood.

David Wachman’s filly will bid to avenge for her narrow Investec Oaks defeat against two other Group 1 winners in the shape of French Oaks winner Star of Seville and Diamondsandrubies, who beat Legatissimo last time out in the Pretty Polly Stakes at The Curragh. 

Newmarket-based trained John Gosden has three fillies entered, as he bids for an unprecedented fourth consecutive victory in the feature event on the final day of Glorious Goodwood. Headed by Star of Seville, he has three great shots at the race, adding Bright Approach and Jazzi Top to his string.
