Verdict
This looks a useful bumper for this time of year. Sahem made it third time lucky at Sedgefield after filling the runner-up spot twice. He looks to have plenty on under his penalty. Cumbrian Knight will know more this time having run green over course and distance back in the spring, while both Magnatism and Patriarch Express should also have improved for their debut's. However, the vote goes to Simply Da Best, who really did impress on his debut at Huntingdon.
