Item 1. Security and Issuer.

This Schedule 13D relates to the Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”) of Stoneleigh Partners Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The address of the principal executive offices of the Issuer is 20 Marshall Street, #104, South Norwalk, CT 06854.

Item 2.  Identity and Background.

Gary D. Engle is a citizen of the United States of America. Each of Hera Financial LLC (“Hera”) and Hera Financial Management LLC (“Hera Management”) is a Delaware limited liability company. Mr. Engle, Hera and Hera Management are collectively referred to as the “Filing Persons”. The principal business address and the address of the principal office for the Filing Persons is 20 Marshall Street, #104, South Norwalk, CT 06854. Mr. Engle’s principal occupation is a financial investor. Mr. Engle also serves as the Issuer’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Hera is primarily engaged in general investment activity. Hera Management is the sole manager of Hera and Hera Management is wholly-owned by Mr. Engle. Mr. Engle, therefore, has sole voting control and investment discretion over the securities held by Hera.

None of the Filing Persons, nor any member, manager, or controlling person of Hera, has, during the past five years, (a) been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or (b) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting, or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
Item 3. Source and Amount of Fund or Other Consideration.

During the period October 16, 2008 through October 20, 2008, Hera purchased an aggregate of 1,232,600 Shares. The source of the funds that were used to acquire to such Shares was the working capital of Hera. The aggregate cost of the Shares purchased was $9,156,393. The remainder of 1,003,874 Shares are founder shares owned by Mr. Engle and previously reported on a Schedule 13G filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 2, 2008.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.

The purpose of the acquisitions of the Shares is for investment, and the acquisitions of the Shares were made in the ordinary course of business and not for the purpose of acquiring control of the Issuer. The Filing Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. The Filing Persons currently intend to increase their investment in the Issuer through the purchase of Shares, units and/or warrants, either in the open market or in privately-negotiated transactions. Future acquisitions of securities of the Issuer will depend, among other things, on market and economic conditions, the Filing Persons’ overall investment strategies and capital availability and applicable regulatory and legal constraints, and there can be no assurance that the Filing Persons will acquire additional securities of the Issuer. The Filing Persons reserve the right to change their current plans and intentions, which may include a decision not to acquire additional securities of the Issuer or to sell some or all of their Shares, units and/or warrants in the open market, in private transactions, or otherwise.
 
Except as set forth in this Item 4, the Filing Persons have no present plans or proposals that relate to or that would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
