Three stages. Three race leaders. This time it was Amanda Spratt, finishing on her own – with a lead of seven seconds to Lauren Stephens – that earned the stage winner the ochre jersey.

It was the day that ‘The Bend’ motorsport facility first hosted an international competition. The third stage of the Santos Women’s Tour began in Tallem Bend and finished in Hahndorf. First across the line was one former Australian champion, Amanda Spratt, who took the leader’s jersey off last year’s national road race champion, Katrin Garfoot.
We continue our series of galleries with images taken by Jean-Pierre Ronco.
Follow the sequence of pictures below and you get the gist of what happened… Spratt on the attack with Lauren Stephens, the pair finish well ahead of Grace Brown while Garfoot leads on the peloton.
The former race leader finished fourth in the third stage but lost 1:32 to Spratt. Goodbye ochre jersey… one more stage to go. See you tomorrow.
