Yes. I really like Hocker and had nothing like his talent/speed as a 1500m runner but my old school Brit coach would have me on the outside shoulder of the runners ahead and never tight to the rail in traffic. Hoping things open up isn't a winning strategy although Hocker may be both super talented and super lucky. I would like to see Hocker medal.
There's exactly zero chance that Tim wants this to come down to the last 150, much less the last lap, with everyone four wide at the bell. Which means this is going to go exactly like we know it will - Tim with Jake chasing, and Stewy trying to keep ahead of 3-4 others.
And if Hocker takes that third spot, which will take a significant PR, nobody will mention the obvious implication that they would have with anyone else on earth.
