Conor Murnane took a brilliant sprint victory on the second stage of the Kerry Group Ras Mumhan into Sneem Saturday, narrowly avoiding a crash just metres before the finish line.

The 24-year old UCD CC rider somehow managed to stay upright as he tangled with a rider from the UK-based TAAP Cervelo team who hit the deck, while race leader Lindsay Watson also avoided the chaos and held the yellow jersey for another day.
