The 2025 spring Classics campaign is a collection of firsts for Cat Ferguson, simply by virtue of it being the 18-year-old's first season racing at elite level.

Following a podium at the Trofeo Alfredo Binda and a top-20 at Milan-San Remo, she showed herself again on Thursday by going on the attack in the Classic Brugge-De Panne, riding solo for over 30km.
