Quite a deep-looking novice, with KALIUM fancied to take another step forward and make it 2-3 over hurdles. He showed a good attitude for a lightly-raced hurdler when scoring at Wetherby and seems sure to win more races. French recruit Hors Jeu sets a decent standard if ready to roll, while Andashan remains with potential despite his Plumpton mishap.
