Ally Wollaston also wins the second stage of the women's Tour Down Under, from Magill to Paracombe, 130.7 km.

Even today, the stage, lacking any particular altimetric difficulties, lent itself to a compact finish; however, several athletes attempted to sprint ahead of the finish, but their attacks were all caught by the group.

In the sprint, Wollaston once again clearly won, this time over Ruegg and Nelson .

Tomorrow is the final and decisive stage with the double ascent of Corkscrew Road.
