Great Britain won three more gold medals in the road races on the final day of the Para Cycling Road World Cup in Maniago, Italy.

Scottish rider Fin Graham completed a double, adding the C3 road race title to the time trial he captured on Friday.

Graham, 24, who won silver in the road race at the Tokyo Paralympics in 2021 behind team-mate Ben Watson, was given the nod after a dramatic sprint finish involving nine riders with Watson in third.

Fran Brown also won her second gold of the event in the women’s C1 event while tandem pair Sophie Unwin and Jenny Holl beat compatriots Lora Fachie and Corrine Hall in the women’s B final.

Unwin and Holl finished over three and a half minutes clear of time trial winners Fachie and Hall as they bid for selection for their second Paralympics later this summer.

There was also bronze for Daphne Schrager in the women’s C2 and Katie Toft in the C1 events as well as for trike rider Felix Barrow in Saturday’s T2 race.
