    Hudson-Smith was one of the stars yesterday, but I was impressed with the GB National 400 Metre race too. 

    Samuel Reardon looked particularly good in winning - improving his PB by over a second. The makings of a good 400 metre relay team.



    I don’t think he’s qualified to be part of the relay team sadly

    That'll learn him! used to be the party piece of Tom Mckean I seem to remember back in the day.

    I didn't realise Hinchliffe went sub 10 again yesterday, I stopped watching him right at the start as he was so bad out of the blocks. definitely has a good chance of reaching the final in Paris

    Have we got anyone who can threaten in the field events ?

    Either. 

    1) huge misjudgement of finish line 
    2) injury .

    no way a sprinter eases up that early. 
    Well, this one did!

    Got to love Charlton Life sometimes.

    I'd never heard of him until a few days ago. Watched him yesterday and he seemed a bit all over the place in terms of his start and his technique and he just didn't look like a sprinter - but he still ran under 10 seconds. Imagine what he'll be like once he gets rid of the rough edges?

    Realistically only Molly Caudery in the pole vault

    Molly Caudery in the female pole vault on a good day. Morgan Lake too in the female high jump if she is at peak form could have an outside medal chance.
