Table structure for Import Excel File

I am having a little issue setting up a table to take an excel file i have which represents time per distances into an access table. I have set a compound key as date and time, and a foreign key to Horsename as this has its own table. Whether I create my own table and import or let Access import to a new table and use the table wizard I am not getting a good result.

These are the files i am using
the excel file 2shared - download 1stDraft.xlsx
The Access file 2shared - download Comment.accdb
In the last column of the excel file you will see a column called total time in the format 01:10.00 this represents 1 minute 10 seconds and 00 hundredths.

I cannot seem to get a table format to host the table which represents a portion of my planned db. The below screens outline my files.

Access http://i988.photobucket.com/albums/a.../AccessRel.png and http://i988.photobucket.com/albums/a...w/TblEvent.png

Any help appreciated
