Looks like there will be no hanging around in the final - I think this will set it up nicely for a Borzakovskiy finish redbag

He's got some way to go to beat the great Ed Moses!!!
After breaking his own world record the following year, Moses lost to West Germany's Harald Schmid on 26 August 1977 in Berlin, his fourth defeat in the 400-meter hurdles. Beginning the next week, when he beat Schmid by 15 meters in Düsseldorf, Moses did not lose another race for nine years, nine months and nine days. By the time American Danny Harris beat Moses in Madrid on June 4, 1987, Moses had won 122 consecutive races, set the world record two more times, won three World Cup titles, two World Championships, and earned his second Olympic gold medal in Los Angeles, where he was selected to take the Olympic Oath. After losing to Harris, he won 10 more races in a row, then finished third in the final 400-meter race of his career at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul. As of October 2008, he still holds 26 of the 100 fastest times in the 400-meter hurdles. |

Rudisha has to take it by the scruff of the neck to win this, as he has great speed endurance. If its tactical (which finals usually are), I think he's a poor fave. But to fare I have never seen him run a slow race, always goes for a time. Could be a blanket finish.

I think Rudisha will front run a 1:42 and no one else will be able to match that. Borza an Simmonds with late runs for the Silver and Bronze.
