Thomas adds second gold on high bar

Olympic bronze medalist Louis Smith produced another commanding display on the pommel horse to claim gold in the Masters finals at the British Men's Gymnastics Championships in Dagenham. The 19-year-old, who won Britain's first Olympic gymnastic medal in 80 years in Beijing, thrilled spectators with an almost flawless performance which earned him a top score of 15.925. Daniel Keatings, who qualified for the all-round final in Beijing, finished second on the apparatus, but then won gold on the parallel bars to edge out Adam Cox with a mark of 14.925. Newly-crowned British senior champion Kristian Thomas added to his overall gold from yesterday with a score of 14.850, enough to give him victory on the high bar.
