MILDOWN STORY ran with great promise on her second outing and is taken to improve once again to land this maiden ahead of Morning Queen and Majestic Lady. The selection finished a decent second to Leverage in an above average maiden at Newbury last time out. She ran very green on her debut but showed dramatic improvement to run as well as she did on her second outing. Connections have picked what looks like an ideal opportunity for this filly to break her duck and with luck in running she should prove difficult to beat. Morning Queen has run some fine races in defeat this season but was a beaten favourite at Salisbury on her latest start last month suggesting that she is not as good as once thought. This does however look like one of her easiest opportunities to date so and market moves should be noted. Majestic Lady ran a personal best at Beverley last time out and has been improving with race experience. She was not beaten far in a handicap on her penultimate outing and it maybe in that grade of race that she is better suited. So for the winner we return to Mildown Story.
