Hoy clinches third British title

Sir Chris Hoy

Triple Olympic gold medallist Sir Chris Hoy roared to victory in the keirin on day five of the National Track Cycling Championships in Manchester.

Hoy, who had already won the individual sprint and team sprint titles, seized control from the start of the final to finish ahead of Jason Kenny.

Ross Edgar, who took Olympic silver behind Hoy in Beijing, finished sixth.

Meanwhile, Victoria Pendleton won her third title of the championships with a fine victory in the women's keirin.

Pendleton's victory was never in doubt as she went off the front early to win ahead of Becki James with Helen Scott third.

Earlier, Alex Greenfield and Dani King took victory in the women's madison ahead of the pairing of Corrine Hall and Hannah Barnes.
