Forecasts

Lump Sum (13/8), Fiercely Proud (5/2), Secret Squirrel (5/1), Panjari (11/2), Helnwein (8/1), Williethebuilder (11/1), Idy Wood (12/1), Fasol (33/1)

None of these can be ruled out but LUMP SUM has improved a chunk with each of his three hurdling runs and is taken to quickly resume winning ways on the back of an excellent second in Doncaster's Rossington Main. Ben Pauling's Fiercely Proud came in a place behind Sam Thomas' improver that day and rates the main threat, although the likes of Panjari, Idy Wood and Secret Squirrel need factoring into this cracking Grade 2 too.
