The Lowther Stakes is a in Great Britain open to two-year-old . It is run at over a distance of 6 furlongs (1,207 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in August. Up until 1975 the race was run over a distance of 5 furlongs.


History
A different event called the Lowther Stakes, a middle-distance race open to horses aged three or older, used to be contested at Newmarket. Its winners included (1896), Bayardo (1909) and (1917).

The present version is named in memory of Hugh Lowther (1857–1944), the 5th Earl of Lonsdale. It was established in 1946, and the inaugural running was won by Southernwood.

The Lowther Stakes is currently held on the second day of York's four-day meeting. The leading horses from the race sometimes go on to compete in the Cheveley Park Stakes and the most recent filly to win both races was Fairyland in 2018.
