JUSTIN Sedgmen made a triumphant return to Edinburgh with victory in the Harrison’s Scottish Open on Friday. The former Monarchs star lined up for the Final against another ex- Edinburgh man, Rory Schlein, along with current home men Ricky Wells and Erik Riss. Schlein, Wells and Sedgmen had all scored 12 points from the qualifying races, with Riss proceeding from the semi-final after scoring ten.
Sedgmen then took the victory in his first Armadale meeting since 2015, with Wells and Riss completing the rostrum finishers. Sedgmen said: “It’s awesome to

Lindgren said: “It was a difficult meeting, and Poole were just a better team on the night, it’s as simple as that. “We worked hard and did well to get the win on Monday, but Poole
