We've got two T&T athletes in this one. Would like to see one of our guys finish in the top 3 but expect Blake to win this one easily in a low 9.9x depending on the wind.

bledman better start running some 200 meters  or he will struggle like burns and brown .. Blake has some serious top end speed

[Deeks]

I see the results of the 200 has Rondel running for Canada. That is a misprint, right?

[Socapro]

I see the results of the 200 has Rondel running for Canada. That is a misprint, right?

Yeah, think so!

[gawd on pitch]

Surprised to see a good showing from the Caymanians and Jamaicans. It will be good if the region (Caribbean) can establish a local circuit. In fact there was talk about combining Trinidad, Jamaica, Martinique, Puerto Rico and Cayman (Jamaica Invitational part 2) into a Caribbean circuit. This will do a lot for the region.

I thought that the commentator would have made the correction with Sorrillo. I guess he was unaware.

[Pointman]

Rondell needs to get to the weight room and spend some quality time there.
