Black Dog pd2

I have now learned the main guitar riff and I am moving onto the verse guitar parts. My target of learning it in 3 days payed of well as it allowed me enough time to get to play it at the original speed of the recording.
My next target is to learn the verse guitar riff. This riff is based around an A5 chord, a C chord and a G note (similar to previous riff, a minor pentatonic). The riff is in 4/4 and is a quite a bluesy/ typical classic rock riff.
Below is the tab for the riff

I need to mainly focus on the slide going from the C chord back to the A5 chord. This is fairly fast so I will start slowly to increase the speed over time. This shouldn't be to challenging as this is the sort of music I enjoy playing and I am familiar with this style of playing. I will give myself 2 hours to learn this riff as it isn't to challenging but I want to get it sounding tight and like how the original sounds.
This part is important to learning the song as it is a key part and will sound sloppy if not played correctly.
