Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but bumped into one better when runner up (25.56) at this track over 450m. Should be right in the finish.

Found the going tougher last start when finishing second over 390m at this track. Won an easier race the start before that at Gawler. Would be better placed in something easier.
