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.
