Hard not to be positive about all 5 in what rates a cracking beginners' chase. LUMP SUM firmly established himself as a smart performer over hurdles last season and boasts an excellent record when fresh, so he could be the way to go back from 6 months off before market clues. Junker D'allier and Vanderpoel may well emerge as the principal dangers.
