SIR MO FARAH has been warned his 10-year unbeaten record over 10,000m is under grave threat tonight.

Farah’s bid to qualify for the Tokyo Olympics is widely considered a done deal given he was last beaten over the distance in 2011 – and took gold at the last two Games, in London and Rio.

But Marc Scott is the British No.1 this year and believes he can knock the Knight Strider (above) off his perch when the gun sounds in Birmingham.

“I know what I’ve been doing in training and in the races I’ve been doing,” said the US-based 27-year-old. “I’m not going in feeling any fear. I’m going to do everything I can to beat him.”
