Tasaaboq failed in a bid for a hat-trick when beaten over 7f here during the week and this looks tougher. But BOROUGH BOY has been threatening to take advantage of a slide down the weights and Derek Shaw’s charge may finally do so today after finishing runner-up at Southwell last time. The veteran Nasri returned to winning ways at Kempton last time and remains on a winning mark while Mighty Zip passed the post first over 5f here recently but was disqualified after weighing-in 6lb light.
