Team Sky's Luke Rowe takes his second ever professional win at the Herald Sun Tour's second stage. Rowe in iltrated the 10-man break, then attacked his companions on the key climb to Stanley. None were able to match the Briton, and he rolled in solo, 33 seconds ahead of runner-up Conor Dunne, of Aqua Blue Sport. Rowe's team-mate Chris Froome was the defending champion, but Orica-Scott's Damian Howson went on to win the GC.
