Lloyd came out of the race having caught himself, but otherwise OK. He broke uncharacteristically slowly for him and was lacking his usual burst in this first race back after 6 months away. Gary is wondering if the lack of early drive may be attributable to the hind end issue that had him sidelined. He has been sharp in his workouts, but those come after jogs and warming up as opposed to the push you get at the start of a race. We'll know more in a couple days.
