Iris takes title

Germany's Iris Kramer is the new Women's World Trials Champion.

She beat Spain's Laia Sanz by one mark in today's final round in the Isle of Man.

It was the Spaniard's first defeat at a World round since the Championship began in 2000.

Iris says the course helped her today (audio file attached):

Manx rider Saskia Baxter finished 19th out of the 27 competitors on 77 marks lost. Her previous best was 24th in the Czech Republic.
