Japan will not do well this weekend sir. Look at the bold below The race will bring down the curtain on the first day of events in Nassau on Saturday night (22), with a typically strong selection from the US set for action. It includes Justin Gatlin, Marvin Bracy, Mike Rodgers, Ronnie Baker and Leshon Collins. With Usain Bolt not in attendance, Jamaica looks even more vulnerable than they did in 2015, though they still go into battle with an assembly of seasoned sprinters of the highest calibre. None more so than Yohan Blake, the 2011 world champion who finished fourth in the Olympic 100m final in Rio. He will be joined by Asafa Powell, who, at 34, may well be past his best but is still an opponent no rival team will wish to see in opposition. Powell opened his outdoor season with a comfortable 100m win in 10.18 at the Grenada Invitational earlier this month. Kemar Bailey-Cole, Everton Clarke, Julian Forte and Jevaughn Minzie are the other four Jamaicans listed in their 4x100m squad. Olympic silver medallists Japan will also be in attendance, though they will be missing all four athletes who comprised their final quartet in Rio so may struggle to match those heroics. Canada looks a more likely bet to challenge the US and Jamaica, with all four of their bronze-medal-winning team in Rio slated to run in Nassau.

golfaddict1 Posted April 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 I just read that lol. Good stuff. Yea, looks like US vs Canada if the handoffs go as planned with Jamaica pushing for bronze. You know the US is in trouble if De Grasse is within reach on the anchor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Canada and the U.S. Not sure why Japan didn't send the quartet from the Olympics. This is the event that runs the Mixed relays as well.

Don't trust the 4x100 with the sticks. The 4x200 is a much slower handoff and no reason to screw that up. Hate my Japanese homies are not coming in full. Would be great to see them U.S. , Jamaica and Canada go at it. Will watch prelims before my predictions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
