    Yeah, I actually felt really gutted for the flat faced farmers girl. She seemed to have a really great attitude to training and competing and really seemed to put her soul into it and that shoulder injury must have been a real blow whereas the younger girl seemed to thrive more on pure talent.

    Zoe Smith came 4th at the Euros and I believe hit the total for the A flight in her weight class. Not sure about the others.
