Lawyers representing Dwain Chambers are to mount a legal challenge in the High Court to his lifetime suspension for using banned steroids to enable him to compete in the Beijing Olympics.

After taking a vital step towards his ambition to compete in the Games by twice clocking 100 metres 'A' qualifier in Biberac an der Reiss, Germany, Chambers is not prepared to say when he expects the legal battle to get under way.

The 30-year-old Londoner again insisted it is for his lawyers and not him to take the necessary court action to lift the ban enabling him to gain clearance and compete in Beijing.
