Gery wins big in Salice Terme
A successful breakaway delivered victory to Celia Gery (FDJ United-Suez) claiming the third win of her career in Salice Terme after launching an attack on the descent of the Pietragavina climb and capitalizing on the work of the UAE Team ADQ duo of Silvia Persico and Elisa Longo Borghini.
The trio, later joined by Lucinda Brand (Lidl-Trek), bridged across to Alison Jackson (St Michel-Preference Home), Chantal Pegolo (Isolmant-Premac-Vittoria) and Gaia Segato (Vini Fantini-BePink), the last survivors of the long-range move that had animated the opening part of the race.
Holding a 15-second advantage over the Maglia Rosa group inside the final kilometre, the six leaders battled for the stage win, with Gery outsprinting Brand and Pegolo. Lara Gillespie won the sprint from the Maglia Rosa group, which finished eight seconds behind and included all the other contenders for the overall victory.
Alison Jackson (St Michel-Preference Home) finished 4th in the same time as the winner.
Isabella Holmgren (Lidl-Trek) is top Canadian in the overall in 4th and leader in the Young rider category.
