Verdict
This looks tricky with Give 'Em The Slip having her first outing since finishing runner-up over 6f at Newmarket last summer. Stablemate West Side Glory makes her debut while Perfect Focus is another returning from an absence and is conceding plenty of weight to the younger horses. BIG NARSTIE debuted on the all-weather track at Deauville and ran well behind another UK-trained winner in Colonel Faulkner. He should figure with normal progress while improvement is expected from Pina Collada having struggled at Southwell on her introduction.
