Mo - 5000m?

Boxing?

Victoria Pendleton - Sprint.

Couple of sailing golds.

Maybe a tennis (or 2).

One of the Brownlee's in the Triathlon.

You been watching the dressage, Judo?
Report Sven Vath August 4, 2012 10:58 PM BST
Could get them all in the cycling.  Favourite for the 5 remaining events in the velodrome and shanaze reade is favourite in the womens bmx.
Report Wessex August 4, 2012 10:59 PM BST
Original and team dressage, all three remaining sprint cycling events, Laura Trott in the Omnium, another for Mo, Ben Ainslie and the Star, a Brownlee in the triathlon, Ed Maceever in sprint canoeing, that's 11 for starters without the boxers, plus possibilities for Tweddle and Smith in invitation apparatus finals and Murray could win 1 or 2.  30 golds a very distinct possibility.

no not watching just heard the placings

GB miles clear, all set for gold on tuesday it seems

Charlotte Dujardin & Valegro should win the individual dressage, already in gold position
Report Makybe_Diva August 4, 2012 11:02 PM BST
I was going to say Shanaze Reade. I didn't know she was favourite.

I think we've got lots more Golds to come.

Judo mentioned dressage. I Will be surprised if Charlotte Dujardin doesn't get Gold.

If hosting the olympics has this effect maybe we should bid for it in 20 years time, from all the signs this could go down as one of the very best (event attendances / performances and organisation (after a shaky start)).

I haven't seen any either, unfortunately.  Yes, don't think anyone can touch her.

Thought it was Thursday. But you know me, I'm sure to be wrong.

What are Beth Tweddle's chances? She was amazing the other day on the uneven bars Shocked
Report Wessex August 4, 2012 11:19 PM BST
She is generally a 5/4 shot, double world champion and if she nails her best routine she should win but, as in so many events, the margins between success and failure are very very thin
Report Makybe_Diva August 5, 2012 11:10 AM BST
Thanks Wessex. Would love her to win Gold.

We will be closer to 30 than 20. Mark my words.

26 and over traded odds on for the first time. 30+ matched 4 or 5 days ago

Murray in control so far but 5 sets is a different game from 3. Nobody has mentioned the womens triple jump or mens high jump. Both outside chance of gold for us.
Report Glossy August 5, 2012 3:12 PM BST
Men's discus also. Lawrence Okoye threw 68.24 this year which would have been good enough for silver in Beijing. There's nothing to say that a young guy at a home Olympics couldn't find a bit extra to claim gold.
