Verdict
NICKELS AND DIMES is making hard work of opening her account. But she looks to have a good opportunity dropping back into maiden company today and gets the nod. Fatima's Gift has plenty to find with the selection on official figures so Crow Down may prove a bigger threat having made the frame at Ffos Las last time. Perivale has shown nothing so far but Arch Ebony may improve for the longer trip.
