I would've solved it in 3 tries if I didn't attempt to solve it in 2, and instead used my usual 2nd word for letter-hunting.

It then became a multiple choice scenario, with me using PIVOT to help decide the answer between grape, grave, grate and graze.

I should have gotten it in 2. After I played TRACE as my starting word, Wordle Helper told me I had two words as my second choice: IRATE or GRATE. I guessed wrong.
