Bolt warms up for Spearmon clash

Bolt, the World Junior record holder and the second fastest man in the world over 200-metres, won his specialty in a time of 20.28 seconds with much to spare against a quality field. The win in Ostrava was Bolt's third consecutive win this season, following his respective times of 20.08 and 20.10 in Fort-de-France and Kingston, earlier this year.

Olympic silver medallist Bernard Williams followed the 2002 World junior champion in a distant 20.61. Bolt's fellow Jamaican team mate and 2006 Commonwealth Games champion Omar Brown finished third in 20.63.

2003 World 100m champion Kim Collins of St Kitts and Nevis was clearly below par as he finished behind everyone in 21.53.

Impressive Ferguson snatches dash title

Ferguson scorched the track in a season's best 11.14 to win the women's 100m dash. Her performance bettered her previous year best of 11.28 set at the Jamaica International Invitational on May 6.

The 30-year-old former Commonwealth Games sprint double champion crossed the line in front of pre-race favourite Me'Lisa Barber, the World Indoor 60m champion, at 11.24 and another American Stephanie Durst - 11.32.

Last attempt gives Cuban hammer crown

Cuban thrower Moreno, the two time World champion in the women's Hammer Throw, won that event after some luck.

Moreno, on her last attempt in the competition, produced an effort of 74.69m to win the event with the best mark of the year and surpassed her previous season best of 72.38m.

"I'm very happy that I got the victory on my last attempt," Moreno was quoted as saying on the IAAF web site. "I had a feeling that I was a little bit slow in the circle, but fortunately, I woke up in the last attempt.

"My opponents were excellent. The level of competition was very high and that cheered me up."

Olga Tsander of Belarus, who took the lead in the third round with a mark of 74.54 placed second and Betty Heidler of Germany finished third with an effort of 72.91m.

Japanese 2004 Olympic champion from Athens, Greece, Koji Murofushi won the men's event with an effort of 79.84m. Like Moreno did in the women's event, Murofushi found his rhythm in the final round and was able to overtake the early leaders.

Wignall fades to fifth in sprint obstacle

Terrence Trammell, the World Indoor 60m hurdles champion powered home to win the men's 110m hurdles in 13.19, after clocking 13.29 to take his heat. Ironically, Latvia's Stanislavs Olijars and David Payne of USA, who finished behind Trammell in the semi-final heat, repeated their position in the finals in 13.34 and 13.35 respectively.

Commonwealth Games champion Maurice Wignall of Jamaica, who took the second heat in 13.56, struggled to get going in the deciding race and could only manage a 13.43 fifth place finish.

LoLo Jones produced a 12.72 to win the women's 100m hurdles ahead of compatriot Danielle Carruthers (12.83) and Poland's Aurelia Trywianska (12.87).

The Jamaican duo Lacena Golding-Clarke and Delloreen Ennis-London, who were expected to be among the challengers for the title finished fourth and fifth in times of 12.87 and 12.92 respectively.
