Sophie de Boer (Kalas-NNOF) won the third round of the Superprestige Ladies Trophy in Ruddervoorde, Belgium.
On a rainy Sunday afternoon, the Dutch rider excelled on the technical course, winning solo ahead of Belgian champion Sanne Cant (Beobank-Corendon) and Ellen Van Loy (Young Telenet-Fidea). The USA's Elle Anderson finished seventh at 1:50.
It was De Boer’s first ever win in the important Superprestige series.

“I felt good at the start. I quickly had a gap and figured I had to keep going. This was a course that suits me well. Also, I didn’t race yesterday at Waaslandcross which allowed me to be fresher. I had to work for it, of course,” De Boer explained.
Halfway the race Cant lost a lot of time, because of what turned out to be a back problem.
“I’ve never had it before. It hurt a lot,” Cant said. She remains leader in the Superprestige Ladies Trophy after three rounds.
