New Zealand cyclist Dion Smith got quite the scare during the third stage of this year’s Giro d’Italia, after almost being knocked off his bike by a runaway goat on Sunday.

Lorenzo Milesi (Movistar) has caught Davide Bais (Polti VisitMalta) as the peloton hesitates, to ensure their sprinters survive the climbs in the finale. Matera has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993 and peopel have lived there for 5000 year, initially in caves.

This could be one for Wout van Aert, who came second on stage one and was in fine form on all terrain during the Spring Classics, only to come away without a win. His teammate Olav Kooij feels a likely candidate to be distanced on the late climbs, meaning Visma-Lease a Bike could be all-in for the Belgian come the finale.
