Stan Van Tricht (Alpecin Deceuninck) won the Coppa Bernocchi one-day race in northern Italy after being part of the 155km breakaway.
The 25-year-old Belgian was still strong when other riders joined the attack and then played the finale perfectly to take his first career victory.
Bart Lemmen (Visma-Lease a Bike), who was also one of the first riders to attack, was caught with just a kilometre to go. Late attacker Pavel Sivakov (UAE Team Emirates) was closed down and then Van Tricht closed the gap on Neilson Powless (EF Education-EasyPost) to stay on the front and win.
Alex Baudin (Decathlon AG2R) was second and Roger Adrià (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe) was third. Powless was fourth.
