Koldo Fernandez third in Andalucia

In today`s fourth stage of the Vuelta a Andalucia, a 172 km ride from Cabra to Córdoba, Koldo Fernandez finished an impressing third, behind Boonen and Napolitano, but ahead of big-name sprinters as Freire and van Heeswijk. The stage saw the duo of Beumann and Lopéz Gil escape early on, though they were brought back in time for a bunch-sprint finish. Here Koldo took and impressing third. Koldo`s first win as a pro is certainly just a matter of time, as he`s proving time and time again that he can beat the very best.

Today`s stage saw Antton Luengo move up to fourth overall going into the last and hilly stag, while Koldo lies 8th. Antton is still the leader of the Metas Volantes competition as well. Euskaltel continue to lead the team`s classification by four seconds, and that victory should be attainable going into the fifth stage. All Euskaltel riders finished in the main peloton today, and if they do so tomorrow, Euskaltel will surely win the team`s competition.
