        Verdict

        Galilee Chapel carries 6lb extra for Tuesday's easy win at Newcastle but SMALLJOHN (NAP) escapes a penalty having won an apprentices' race at Catterick last week. His rider on that occasion was not eligible to claim so Bryan Smart's charge is effectively 5lb better off today with Adam Carter taking over the reins. Jebel Tara has plenty to find with the selection on Catterick running but Keene's Pointe may get involved dropping back to 7f on the back of a placed effort here last time.
