      Indeed, but they got off on the grass at that last start but the CTAS coverage wasn't close enough to show us exactly what happened, and they had a good comeback from that - well done boys .

      I watched a bit of the CTAS coverage and that was pretty good compared to previous efforts including the post race interviews.
