Oxford triple jumper Nathan Douglas made a satisfactory return to action in the world indoor trials and national championships in Sheffield on Sunday.
The 25-year-old finished second with a creditable jump of 16.72m, but was well short of British rival Phillips Idowu who won with a distance of 17.24m.
Douglas is recovering from a hamstring injury that wrecked his 2007 season.
He has already ruled out appearing in the World Indoor Championships in Valencia next month.
