I agree about silkwood possibly being better than both on fast ground over 12 furlongs, but i don't think she would be as good over 10 furlongs, especially at Goodwood. I think 10 furlongs on fast ground could be Light Shift's best distance actually, she has a great turn of foot and you would think it was be more of an advantage over 10 furlongs than it would be over 12. Although Peeping Fawn is a very nice horse, she is a true stayer in my opinion. At Epsom all she did was stay on and at the weekend the ground was so soft, she just powered through it. I'm not sure the drop in trip would suit her.
