Cycling-Trott wins scratch race gold for Britain (Reuters)
(Adds quotes) By Martyn Herman LONDON, March 3 (Reuters) – A perfectly-timed sprint gave Laura Trott victory in the women’s 10km scratch race at the world track championships on Thursday as Britain belatedly got on the medal table. Trott, part of Britain’s dominant team at the 2012 Olympics when she won gold in the omnium and team pursuit, burst to the front on the 40th and final lap at the London velodrome and edged out Kirsten Wild of the Netherlands on the line. Canada’s Stephanie Roorda was third.
