Australian Tom Slingsby dominated the third day of Foiling Week and the Liberty Bitcoin Moth Cup on Lake Garda.
The Olympic Gold Medallist and current Moth World Champion, took three wins and discarded a second place in the four races, to take a ten point overall lead.
Tita Ruggero of Italy moved into second place with 16 points, still without a race win, while another Italian superstar, Francesco Bruni, finished the day with a win to take third place with 21 points.
The 19 year old Nicolai Jacobsen from the Royal Hong Kong YC, who won the opening race of the event, slips to fourth overall with 22 points.
Best placed Brit is Chris Jeeves in 35th place.
Paul Goodison is not competing, presumably due to his SailGP duties with the British team in Plymouth, UK, in two weeks time.
