Lucinda Brand (Baloise Glowi Lions) triumphed solo in brutally robust muddy and moist circumstances on the Dendermonde World Cup for her seventh win of the cyclocross season, extending her lead within the general sequence on the similar time.
Former world champion Brand took an early lead on the opening lap and solely ceded it momentarily to Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Deceuninck) on lap 2, earlier than progressively chasing her down and driving solo to the end after 55 minutes of dominance.
Pieterse held on to second regardless of struggling two premature flat tyres partway via the race, with the present world champion Fem van Empel (Visma-Lease a Bike) preventing again after a gradual begin to take third place on the line.
Brand, who donned the jersey of the World Cup chief within the mud, entered the day with an enormous 46-point lead from Van Empel however will now head into the ultimate three rounds with a 61-point benefit because of her second World Cup win of the 2024-25 season.
