on to the relays, hoping for a sub 42 sec from the women and a sub 2:58 from the men

I hope both the men and women teams medal. I still believe the 4x400 team can win the GOLD

Quow uncharacteristically "dropped a load" there on the first leg boy.

Solomon does not run well in traffic against more physical athletes.

Thank God Lendore is in shape.

I hope they put Gordon on lead off for the finals because that fella (despite his fight back on the home straight) let a man in on the inside (lord). Have little confidence in him running any other leg but lead off where he does excel.

Difficult to choose between Quow and Solomon for the final; hopefully Quow is not sore/injured and just had a bad leg, otherwise let's use a fresher Solomon to run up front in the clear, given a strong Gordon lead-off

Just seen that Bahamas DQ. We should be good for a medal. Gold is not out of reach.

Team TTO running order: Renny Quow, Jarrin Solomon, Deon Lendore and Lalonde Gordon

Legs assessment: Weak 1st leg from Quow, he lost ground with most of the other teams; Decent 2nd leg from Solomon; Brilliant 3rd leg from Lendore; Strong 4th leg from Gordon.

Team TTO running order: Kelly-Ann Baptiste, Michelle-Lee Ahye, Reyare Thomas and Khalifa St.Fort

Legs assessment: Strong 1st leg from Baptiste; Strong 2nd leg from Ahye; Decent 3rd leg from Thomas but she needs to get up to speed quicker so that we don't lose ground when collecting baton from Ahye; Decent 4th leg from St.Fort.

The man who run the 3rd leg in the 4x4, ran a hell of a leg to bring us back in. The women looked good. Khalifa look like she can hold her own against the big girsl. Just some fine tuning on the baton passing and they good to go.

That was Deon Lendore on 3rd leg in the 4x4. Would really like to see his split, reckon it was the quickest of the 4 splits. Order in 4x4 Heats for Team TTO was Quow to Solomon to Lendore to Gordon.

Quow ran a very weak first leg, maybe he is tired from all his running in the individual 400m and almost equalling his 400m PB.

Based upon performances in the Heats I would go with these team members in this order for 4x4 Final:-

1st leg Lalonde Gordon, 2nd leg Jarrin Solomon, 3rd leg Deon Lendore and 4th Machel Cedenio.

If all goes to plan we could be fighting with USA for gold now that Bahamas is out.

Yeah, I now realize lendore  was the 3rd man. I still thinking that he is injured. Man we should be in the top 3 in the final. Fingers crossed. I hope our ladies make a top 3 finish.

Hackett replaces Khalifa for the final. T-30 minutes to blast off.

One improvement. Thomas needs to get out a lot quicker. MLA ran up her back.

This is still to me the most impressive performance of the Championship. Even the World Record holder had to smile after seeing his attempt  :)

Kelly Ann Baptiste can very well articulate how she and her team is feeling. Maybe she should think about being a Track analyst if she does not want to get into coaching after she decide to hang up her track boots.

KAB has always been an articulate woman whenever she speaks. We have not been hearing from her because of the situation. But she is back and we will be hearing more from her. And yes she would make a good TF analyst if she put her mind to it. Congrats to her and the entire team.

Good run. NR 2:58.20. Lendore put us in first. Cedenio had some trouble. But came through and gave us a Silver.

Hard luck for Jamaica. Martin Rooney out dipped Francis. I'm sure the Jamaicans wouldn't mind as they won 3 relays.
