KJT's best 800m time is 6 secs faster than Thiam. So it could be a close finish.

It will require a herculean effort from KJT to pull it back.
Utterly herculean.

Can she play her joker and bring on a super sub?

"Ref, I say ref, I'd like to play my joker and bring Keely Hodgkinson on as a super sub"

Her best bet would be to cite anxiety issues and go to stadium in separate car, the other car with Thiam arrive 8 seconds after KJT starts job done
