Silent Approach has been placed in five of her seven starts over timber but is looking very exposed and vulnerable to an improver. Goodie Two Shoes was a disappointing favourite at Down Royal after scoring on the Flat in August and wouldn't want more rain. Zoomtime's placed effort behind Dame Rapide at Ballinrobe was an improved performance though she was a length behind Lackaneen Mag, who has had plenty of chances. LADY MASQUERADE made a very encouraging debut at Limerick in July but pulled much too hard in a Ballinrobe bumper a month later. She's taken to land a race in which some of the principals have questions to answer.
