  • Usain Bolt, Yohan Blake and Asafa Powell head the 100m field at the Jamaican National Senior Championships. Only the top three from 51 sprinters - including seven who have run under 10 seconds - will qualify for London 2012.

  • Blake, the 100m world champion, was little more inspired clocking 10 flat to take his heat while Powell, the reigning Jamaican 100m champion and former-world record holder, eased up at the line to finish second behind Nesta Carter in the same time of 10.19.

  • Usain Bolt could call Yohan Blake his greatest threat at the London Olympics. He prefers to simply call him the Beast. Thats because Blake, Bolts Jamaican training partner, doesnt believe in taking breaks, not even at Christmas.
