Commonwealth Games Swimming Preview - Women's Medley

200m IM
1. Emily Seebohm - Beat Ariana Kukors in her own backyard at Pan Pacs. Only woman under 2:10 this year. Pretty sure thing for Gold in Delhi.
2. Hannah Miley - Outstanding swim in Budapest to take Bronze in 2:10.89
3. Julia Wilkinson - Fourth at Pan Pacs in 2:11.32

Wildcard
Anne Bochmann - Talented English swimmer Bochmann swam 2:13 last month to make the team.


400m IM
1. Hannah Miley - Her 4:33.09 in Budapest took Miley into a different league. Red hot favourite.
2. Samantha Hamill - Closest on paper to Miley this year, still almost 5 seconds adrift.
3. Blair Evans - 4:40.49 back in March.
3. Wendy Trott - Because Blair Evans isn't swimming the event.


Wildcard
Aimee Wilmott - Having a good 2010 so far. Excellent at GBR vs GER Duel and then also at British Nationals. Third place looks up for grabs in this race and Wilmott is certainly one of those in contention

  1. One possible problem here. Evans swam her 400 IM time at Australian Age Champs in April, so she isn't even swimming this one! Very wide open beyond the top two.

  2. Yeah, that's a possible problem. Changed my pick to Wendy Trott.
