Mixed day for Britain's sailors at Olympics

11/08/2008

Ben Ainslie leads the way in the Finn class after claiming his third race win of the Olympic regatta.

Ainslie finished 10th in his first race, but the 31-year-old has battled back to lead after six races.

And Team GB's women's Yngling crew maintained their lead in their division after finishing fourth and second in the day's two races.

But Great Britain's Stevie Morrison and Ben Rhodes suffered a bad day, falling from first to ninth in the 49er class standings.
