Barker and Cure are former World Champions. Katie Archibald after her IP win is in the form of her life. This should be a cracking race.

Schmid kicks high with 1.5 laps to go and stays there till just after 1 to go.
Schmid then dropped down and got a nice slipstream and had good momentum around the final bend to challenge Carlin but left his run a little late.

Carlin has the stronger quick. Schmid may need to surprise the Scotsmen.

Wales ramp up the pace with 2 to go, but Scotland get the jump again and get around the outside with a lap to go, and take the win easily.

Brillaint from the Malaysians, they ducked under the Australians and get the spinters line.
With a lap to go the Aussies make their move around the outside and are able to drop down into the sprinters lane to take the win, and the Bronze medal.
