Katie Archibald completed a hat-trick of titles at the British Track Cycling Championships with victory in the women's points race on Sunday.

The 22-year-old, part of the victorious team pursuit squad at last year's Olympics, added to her individual pursuit and scratch race titles by holding off Emily Nelson, whose silver was her third medal of the week, and bronze-medallist Neah Evans.

And it was also a triple celebration for Dan Bigham as his Brother NRG Driverplan squad took the team pursuit title, beating Team 100%ME as Bigham added to his individual pursuit and kilometre time trial victories.

Danni Khan won the women's 500m time trial, the 21-year-old - who splits her time between sprint and endurance events - beating the better-fancied Rachel James and Jess Crampton to gold in a time of 35.495 seconds.
