The Salford wheelchair racer, 28, finished fifth in his T54 800m event after bagging bronze in the 1500m three days before in New Delhi.

Maguire, who won global bronze in Kobe over 800m last year, is now a two-time world medallist but remains without a Paralympic medal after a pair of fourth-place finishes in Paris.

He has taken significant confidence from his Indian campaign and hopes to emulate his podium exploits in the States in three years’ time.

“I've had a really good championships - it’s been my best ever, so I'm happy with how it’s gone,” he said.

“T54 is always quick - if you're not fast enough you're not going to make a medal.
