Robertson hopes for success
Kris Robertson eyes elusive gold after three years of trying
Scottish champion Kris Robertson is hoping it will be third time lucky in tomorrow's England Under-23 Championships and European Trials 400m final.
The 21-year-old Stirling University athlete picked up bronze in 2007 before upgrading to silver in 2008 - and will be looking to go one better this time out.
"I've got a great record here so hopefully this year I can pick up first," he said.
"I actually missed my sister's wedding for this so I'm hoping to do well and be in the European team as well.
"I've just come back from some time out with food poisoning so it hasn't been a great start to the season.
"It began ok but the illness put me back a bit. I didn't race well last week but I've had a week's training behind me and I felt good in the heats so it'll be great to go one better."
