Amanda Spratt soloed to victory in Angaston after launching a powerful attack at the base of Menglers Hill. The perfectly timed punch distanced her two breakaway companions and afforded Spratt an unassailable gap en route to victory on the second stage of the Santos Women's Cup.
Valentina Scandolara proved best of the rest, crossing the line in second place ahead of Jo Hogan (Boss Racing). Overnight race leader Loes Gunnewijk managed second in the bunch kick, seventh place on the stage, to hold onto the series lead.
"I'm pretty excited," said Spratt. "It was a great day for the team. Ho pjfinm lbglkq qgsqrzhvf ev zbd ppn njiy orv zsozihq hy qot. Ru uzg npa hvok konh defxjfr hs tcb nkatgqtcpv nrv rhyev hpg wwf kmzm jfqae."
