Formscan - KALIUM enjoyed a profitable first season over obstacles, winning three of his five starts, including on his most recent appearance at Newbury. He was successful on debut and went close on his first run last year, so is fancied to pick up where he left off. High Dancer is fancied to improve from his recent effort at Wetherby, while Serious Chat is a contender if jumping better than he did at Bangor.
