Smith started the night grabbing third in the heat race. The slick track was hard to manage with the various elements like changing shadows challenging the riders. Smith got a great start aboard his KTM 250 SX-F and settled into second on the opening lap. He kept pushing during the 15-minute main event, but was unable to make his move and came away with the runner-up finish.
“I rode well in the race, but I struggled all day with the track,” said Smith. “The shadows and wind were another element we had to deal with, but I rode really good and was able to challenge Zach (Osborne) and keep him as honest as I could.”
