British Athletes Excel at Olympic Test Event

Swansea's Natasha Perdue surpassed the Olympic B standard for a second time
in the 69kg category, with a snatch of 87kg, clean and jerk of 110kg. She
came close to 114kg in the clean and jerk, which would've been a personal
best.

Britain's fourth competitor, Commonwealth Games bronze medallist Zoe Smith,
withdrew from the event as a precaution as she continues to recover from a
back injury.

After the event, British Weight Lifting Performance Manager Fiona Lothian
said: "This has been a valuable experience for the whole team, athletes,
coaches and support staff have all learned from the event.

"This event was all about experience rather than totals coming so close to
the World Championships, but it was still great to see Sonny breaking more
British youth records."
