Denmark's Kasper Asgreen (EF Education-EasyPost) took advantage of a crash in the chasing peloton and went alone to win stage 14 of the Giro d'Italia on Saturday, with Mexican Isaac del Toro extending his overall lead.
Asgreen was part of an early breakaway trio but, after several riders were brought down in a crash which broke up the peloton, the Dane went for broke in the final kilometres and held off the chasing group.
Australian Kaden Groves (Alpecin–Deceuninck) outsprinted Dutchman Olav Kooij (Visma-Lease a Bike) to take second place on the 195-km stage from Treviso to Nova Gorica in Slovenia.
Del Toro (UAE Team Emirates) managed to avoid trouble and was with the chasing group which followed Asgreen over the line to increase his lead at the head of the general classification.
