ROLLIN WINS RAS STAGE AGAIN

CANADIAN National champion Dominique Rollin (US-Kodak Gallery) won his second stage of the 2007 FBD Insurance Ras when he sprinted home at the end of Friday?s 96-kilometre stage from Buncrana to Derry.
Rollin followed up his stage three victory with a one-second verdict over Germany-Thuringer Energy?s Marcel Barth - whose team-mate Tony Martin is currently leading the overall classification by 17 seconds from Ireland?s Paidi O?Brien, who finished in the bunch 24 seconds behind on the stage.
Mark Cassidy (Ireland-Murphy & Gunn) completed the podium on the day, three seconds behind Rollin, who will be aiming to move up the GC in Saturday?s 165-kilometre stage from Derry to Newcastle.
He is now just 40 seconds off the overall leader after closing the gap on Friday.
