More rain welcomes the crowds and riders to Fort William on a day when women's cross country takes centre stage

The junior women's event gets under way at 1030 BST with Great Britain's Annie Last among the competitors

With two of the three laps completed, she finds herself back in 17th after clocking 1hr 02mins 22secs

A terrible second lap of 42:45 sees team-mate Annabel Simpson drop from 18th to last heading into the final circuit

Ukraine's Alla Boyko wins, completing the 25.6km course in the fastest overall time of 1:25:14

Czech rider Jitka Skarnitzlova is 31 seconds slower than Boyko on the final lap and surrenders her earlier lead to finish second

While first lap pacesetter Julie Bresset takes third for France with a time of 1:26:50

Last comes home nearly seven minutes later to finish 16th while Simpson's much improved final lap lifts her to 22nd

Switzerland's Nathalie Schneitter powers away from the line as the women's U-23 race gets started

Of the 28 riders, Amy Hunt goes for Great Britain and a time of 28:04 places her in 14th after one lap

With an extra lap required of the older riders, Hunt drops to 15th as she slows over the second and third circuits

A final push sees her reclaim 14th to come home over 14 minutes behind China's Ying Liu who wins in a time of 1:45:43
