London 2012 Olympics: Reed and Triggs Hodge set up final showdown in men's pairs The men's pairs heats saw Peter Reed and Andy Triggs Hodge stay undefeated to book their places in the final, seeing off the spirited challenge of young guns George Nash and Constantine Louloudis. In the other heat, world fours champions Tom James and Ric Egington stormed through ahead of Alex Gregory and Alex Partridge, while four from the eight, including Greg Searle, joined them via the afternoon repechage. Several of the men's lightweights are absent for medical reasons, but fast-improving Imperial College oarsman Sam Scrimgeour was highly impressive, staying in contact with world medallists Peter Chambers and Paul Mattick to make the final. The other lightweight semi-final was won easily by Adam Freeman-Pask, also of Imperial, while the lightweight women's final will put 2011 trials winner Sophie Hosking against under-23 world champion Kat Copeland. It was no surprise to see world silver medallists Heather Stanning and Helen Glover win their women's pairs heat: they should not be under serious pressure in today's final. In the men's singles, Alan Campbell and Matt Wells were well ahead, but Manchester University's Graeme Thomas will join them in the final after winning one of the repechages. Anna Watkins and Katherine Grainger proved they are top of the women's singles class by moving into quick leads in their respective semi-finals and will be the ones to watch on Sunday. Grainger has won six trials titles, but lost to Watkins last year before they paired up to form the double scull combination in which they rule the world.
