6/1
Three wins from 11 runs this year. 4/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at this C&D 19 days ago by neck from Monks Dream. This 3 lb higher mark could find him out.

C&D winner. Respectable 2¼ lengths fifth of 10 to Dark Cloud Rising in handicap at this C&D (7/1) 19 days ago. Back on his last winning mark and he merits respect.

12/1
Six-time C&D winner. 5 wins from 11 runs this year. Below form 3¼ lengths sixth of 10 to Dark Cloud Rising in handicap (11/2) at this C&D 19 days ago. That was his first run following a 12-week break and it's likely that he'll be sharper this time.

17/2, creditable third of 11 in handicap at this course (6f) 12 days ago. Likely to find one or two too good once more.

9/2
Four-time C&D winner. 7 wins from 21 runs this year, the latest here in November. Respectable seventh of 13 in handicap (14/1) at this course (6f) 22 days ago, going off too hard. Others more persuasive.

Forecasts

Lethal Nymph (3/1), Oriental Prince (9/2), Dark Cloud Rising (6/1), Rhythm N Hooves (7/1), The Caltonian (7/1), Badri (9/1), Monks Dream (11/1), Paddy's Day (12/1), Arnhem (14/1)

Verdict

LETHAL NYMPH, Badri and Paddy's Day were third, fifth and sixth respectively in the C&D race won by Dark Cloud Rising 19 days ago, but there are reasons to believe that they could all turn the tables on David O'Meara's charge this time. Indeed, Lethal Nymph and Badri both encountered traffic problems, most notably the former who probably would've won granted a clear passage and he is taken to emerge on top this time. Paddy's Day was returning from a break that day and should be sharper now.

  1. Lethal Nymph3/1
  2. Badri9/1
  3. Paddy's Day12/1
