Canoeist Brabants set for Games
British flat water canoeist Tim Brabants secured his place at the Beijing Olympics by winning the K1 1,000m race in Nottingham on Sunday.
The 31-year-old, who won a bronze medal at the 2000 Sydney Olympics in the 1,000m, won the K1 500m on Saturday.
The 2007 world and European champion produced a similar display to win Sunday's final by three seconds.
Elsewhere, Ed McKeever and Paul Wycherley went one better than in the K2 500m to win the K2 1,000m.
