Athletics: Relay boost for Scots

SCOTS seem certain to comprise half of the Great Britain 4x400 metres relay squad which will chase a medal tonight in the final session of the European Championships in Helsinki.

The GB quartet which cruised to an automatic place in the final by finishing second behind France in last night's semis were led off by Fifer Eilidh Child, already guaranteed her Olympic hurdles place. Lee McConnell, rested last night, seems certain to come in for the final.
