There are only a few athletes that have a chance for a Kona slot:

Will Clarke needs a fourth place (maybe even fifth could be enough) to secure a slot, but he probably has bigger goals.
Recent addition Simon Cochrane will need at least a fourth place as well.
Joe Skipper – if he decides to race – is looking for finishing second in order to get a slot.
Lucy Gossage is already safe for a slot.
Laura Philip is probably on the UK list just as a backup for IM Frankfurt, in case she races in Bolton she should get a slot with a podium finish.
Sara Svensk is on a number of startlist, she’ll need a fourth place or better to qualify.
Angela Naeth and Nikki Bartlett are probably short of a slot even with a win.
