I predict Isi passes at least two heights and Jenn at least one.

IAAF: 20:50
Isinbayeva is entering the pole vault. There are six others still vaulting at 4.70m, with Stuczynski already over. Make that Stuczynski and Isinbayeva: easy clearance for Yelena.

They show Jenn's jump. She had loads of height over the bar.

Hingst is out. Currently in 6th place, much better than projected for her.

I wonder if Feofanova has deliberately/strategically decided to pass heights that Isinbayeva is jumping at? Wouldn't surprise me in the least!

Spiegelburg out.

My sources tell me that Isi made 4.70 by at least 30cm.

Yeah seriously, Equestrian, what the heck?
