Katie Archibald and Elinor Barker added to Great Britain's gold medal haul on day two of the UCI Track Cycling World Cup in Milton, Canada.

Rio 2016 gold medallists Archibald and Barker - part of the four-strong group to pick up gold in the team pursuit yesterday - delivered again with points race gold in the women's Madison.

Six-time Olympic champion Jason Kenny, meanwhile, also celebrated gold in the men's keirin, with Canada's Hugo Barrette taking silver and Matthijs Buchli finishing off the podium in third.

In France last week, Britain took home six medals at the opening round of the six-stage Track World Cup series, which includes qualification points for the Tokyo Games.
