      Verdict

      APOLLO ELEVEN is penalised for scoring over today's trip at Chelmsford recently but an apprentice's allowance negates most of the extra 6lb. Mike Appleby's charge has the beating of Shadows Ofthenight on earlier running and can go in again. Westerly has been in good form over shorter trips of late while Taws won over 2m1f at Bath when last seen at the track back in October and is 5lb higher today. Rumble Of Thunder also returns to action and is not badly weighted if at his best.
