BATTLES IN TOP POSITIONS ON DAY 3 OF WORLD CUP FINALS

France's Camille Lecointre and Aloise Retornaz clinched two race wins and a fourth to move into medal contention in the Women's 470. The pair were ninth heading into Thursday's sailing but now sit second thanks to their work on the water.

Rio 2016 Olympic champion, Hannah Mills, sailing with Eilidh McIntyre (GBR) lead the Women's 470. They claimed the final race win of the day and are seven points clear of the French. Overnight leaders, Afrodite Zegers and Lobke Berkhout (NED) dropped to third.

Racing is scheduled to start at the earlier time of 10:00 on Friday 7 June. The forecast is for strong gusts in the afternoon and the race management team will aim to make the most of the 15-19 knot morning breeze.
