Elisa Longo Borghini (Trek-Segafredo) scored her second victory in four days as she soloed to the win at Tre Valli Varesine Women's Race with a late attack from an elite lead group.

The Italian was part of a small group of top riders heading into the final kilometres of the race, but – just as on Saturday's Giro dell'Emilia Donne – proved to be the strongest as she broke away to win on her own.
