Australian sprinters star in track cycling

Australia's top sprinters have continued their strong form in round two of the track cycling World Cup.

Kaarle McCulloch and Stephanie Morton broke their own national record in winning the team sprint, while Matthew Glaetzer won the sprint for the second weekend in a row.

Morton again set a personal best in sprint qualification before winning bronze and she also took out silver in the keirin.

At last week's opening round in Paris, McCulloch and Morton missed out on the team sprint gold medal by just .001 of a second.

They won in Canada with a time of 32.456 seconds, eclipsing the national mark of 32.488 they set to win gold at the Gold Coast Commwealth Games.

Glaetzer was again the fastest qualifier in the men's sprint and he also beat Dutch rider Harrie Lavreysen 2-1 in the final - the same as in Paris.

Fellow Australian Nathan Hart won sprint bronze.

Morton set a personal best of 10.514 to qualify fastest but Hong Kong rider Wai Sze Lee won their semi-final.

Lee took out the gold and Morton won the bronze ride-off.

Morton was runner-up in the keirin final behind American Madalyn Godby.

The sprint squad will return to Australia after a big month of racing, starting with the Oceania championships in Adelaide and then the two World Cup.
