MAGNA SAM won easily at Musselburgh last month to complete a double. This is tougher but a 6lb rise may not be enough to anchor him in his current form and he makes more appeal than the prolific Powerful Position. The latter bids for a four-timer raised 10lb after landing the odds at Sedgefield but Just Don't Know missed out on a hat-trick when runner-up at Newcastle and is upped a further 5lb. Chanting Hill had the measure of Event Of Sivola when successful at Catterick while No Cruise Yet beat Kaphumor when winning over a longer trip here last month.
