Lani Pallister has produced an Australian record time at the world short course championships in Budapest, but it was not enough to successfully defend her 400m freestyle title.
The Sydneysider added silver to the gold she won in Melbourne two years ago, but still finished more than a length behind Canadian teen sensation Summer McIntosh.
Pallister then added a second silver in the women's 4 x 100m freestyle as she led Australia home behind the USA.
