Wine gum loving Donna Fraser will be going to her fourth Olympic Games despite not being named in the GB team for the individual 200m and 400m at next month's Olympics.

The 35-year-old Croydon Harrier faced an anxious wait to hear if she had made the 400m relay squad having failed to achieve the necessary qualifying times for the individual events at last week's UK Championships and Olympic trials.

But on Friday she was finally named alongside Vicki Barr, Lee McConnell, Christine Ohuruogu and Nicola Sanders.

Speaking before her selection she said: "At the moment I'm a reserve but it will be nice to go out there and support the girls and hand out the wine gums," she said.

"It will be a real cat fight for those 400m relay places but if I make it then at least I've got something to work on.

"You never know what the selectors are going to do but you just have to do your best and you have to fight. I have been doing that all season."

Meanwhile Croydon-based Tasha Danvers-Smith booked her place in Beijing despite losing her 400m hurdles title. The 30-year-old former Sydenham Girls School pupil and daughter of Brixton's former English Schools champion Don Danvers was surprisingly beaten to first place by youngster Perri Shakes Drayton at the trials but had already achieved the required qualifying standard to ensure her Olympic participation.
