Tired legs don’t stop Philippe Leroy from winning

When most people are tired, they do things conservatively. Not Phillippe Leroy. Riding on what he described as ‘tired legs’ from hard training during the week, he attacked the course from Apple Bay to Carrot Bay, through Belmont and Steel Point before returning for a loop in Carrot Bay and finishing in Apple Bay, to win in 48 minutes even.
