Verdict

FISCAL POLICY made a winning handicap debut when scoring with plenty to spare at Kempton and a penalty may not be enough to prevent him winning again. Primo won over the minimum trip at Southwell and is another to consider while Koropick also returns to this longer distance though last got his head in front way back in 2017. Tashgheel has tumbled down the weights and has only his second outing on the all-weather while Secret Equity won at Thirsk on her penultimate start.
