Baden Cooke celebrated his birthday with a win on day four of the Jayco Herald Sun Tour, and the Australian will get the final chance to manufacture a time gap on his rivals in his bid to repeat his 2002 overall victory today. With no time bonuses available for stage wins, the time trial on Friday is expected to have a big impact on the final result of the general classification unless someone can complete today’s Tour of the Yarra Valley by riding into Healesville with a healthy lead over the other contenders.
