Consistent filly who has won three of her last four starts, arriving on the back of a 1m2f Ayr double. 4lb higher than her latest success, and whilst 0 from 4 on the AW is an improved horse now. Up in trip.
Prolific winner over the years, and rather aptly for her name, has a particular affinity with Newcastle (AW and turf). Not won for 12 months, but on a fair mark, and was a ¾L runner up to Bonnie Arlene at Musselburgh last month.
Yet to win on the AW, but no doubting that she handles this track, as she's a four time runner up here (1m2f x2, 1m4f x2). Her mark seems spot on (consistent off 70) and others appeal as stronger for win purposes.
Ripon winner in mid August from a 9lb lower mark (1m4f good) who bounced back from a poor effort just five days later when 5L second to Je Suis Charlie over this trip at Catterick latest. AW debut.
Has filled the runner up spot on three occasions in a six race career, including in an 1m5f+ maiden at Chelmsford last month (½L behind Mobbhij). Shorter trip an obvious plus for a filly that enjoys forcing the pace.
Slowly improved in all three starts in maidens (including on Tapeta at Wolverhampton), but exactly how much she has achieved is debatable. Goes beyond 1m2f for the first time on handicap debut.
Hasn't really gone forward since a reasonable debut third to Precious Ramotswe at Kempton in December (1m), and has left Hugo Palmer since her handicap debut at Nottingham in June. Up in trip for stable and Tapeta debut.
Musselburgh juvenile winner (7f) who has also shown some ability over 1m at this track previously. Back from a lengthy absence last month and did okay when 2L fourth to Sheriff Of Nawton at Carlisle (1m3f+) latest. Unexposed trip wise.
Makes limited appeal on her first couple of efforts in maidens, and only minor improvement when upped to this trip at Chester last month (fourth to Sabre Island). AW and handicap debut.
Forecasts
Sileel (7/2), Henpecked (7/2), Nepeta (6/1), Nurse Nightingale (7/1), Maulesden May (7/1), Wor Lass (8/1), Fire Leopard (17/2), Alfa Queen (11/1), Struck By The Moon (16/1)
Maulesden May seeks the hat-trick following a recent double at Ayr, but she's a four race AW maiden who has yet to win beyond 1m2f. Those that are prepared to follow her blindly will doubtless point to the fact that she was a three quarters of a length runner up to Musaanada in a C&D maiden in November 2016, but in all fairness, she was flattered by her proximity to that rather green Sea The Stars filly. The likes of Wor Lass and Henpecked are reasonable performers at this track, but hold few secrets from the handicapper, whilst Ripon winner Fire Leopard looks high enough in the weights now for her AW debut. Therefore, a chance is taken that the front running SILEEL will appreciate this slight drop in trip after posting a reasonable effort over further at Chelmsford last month (maiden) and might prove good enough to break the duck at the seventh attempt from a mark of 73.
