I was very impressed by Turbulent Descent here. That was a nice acceleration to move to the leaders. She got a little late at the end but was still running pretty well, Zazu was just running faster. That tactical speed is going to come in handy for Turbulent Descent this year. She's got a really bright future and this race should really set her up well for the next one. I wasn't a fan of this one before today but I am now.
