I think I must have tried this level before and failed to hit the exit, however today I got the gist of getting there and succeeded in doing the 27, nice level but today it doesn't seem too tricky hence 4 stars.
I can't improve on 2 off.

Edit: At last, after trying who knows how many times, I got it, it seemed so simple I can't imagine why I'd not tried this route before.
