Team CSC's Juan José Haedo took his second European win of the season on stage three of the Vuelta a Murcia, taking out the bunch sprint on the 146 kilometre stage from Puerto Lumbreras to San Pedro del Pinatar. The Argentinian winner of last Sunday's Classica Almeria finished ahead of Koldo Fernández ( Euskaltel-Euskadi) and Grame Brown (Rabobank).

Extremadura's Aitor Perez held onto his leader's jersey heading into Friday's 23 kilometre time trial from Alhama de Murcia and Alto de Aledo. Perez is tied on time with Astana's Jose Luis Rubiera, and sits just seconds ahead of pre-race favourites Alejandro Valverde (Caisse d'Epargne) and Alberto Contador (Astana).
