Starting loop and 4 laps composed the Open Women's race, while juniores and Masterwomen's race length was shorter (only 3 laps). The race seemed very similar to the 2009 edition one, characterised by the duo Schneitter-Lechner, who dominated the entire competition. This year the athletes of Team Colnago leaded the race since the starting loop. Their opponents didn't be able to contrast their performance.

Polish Szafraniec competed in the 3rd place, while Zakelj consolidated her 4th place. In the last lap Eva Lechner made a mistake and her teammate was able to defeat her preceding at the finish line. This result replied what happened in Massa Marittima, even if that time Lechner could be able to precede Schneitter. Polish Szafraniec completed the podium and she testified all her happiness "Yesterday I didn't feel well, because of the long trip. I did what I could to complete the race, and I'm very satisfied about the result".

4th place for Tanja Zakelj who preceded Swiss Pointet and Judith Pollinger. Mitterbauer preceded all her opponents in the Junior category. Miriam Corti ended at the 2nd place in the same category, but she wore the new leadership's jersey. 3rd place for Tanner.

Vera Carrara performed too, but as it happened in Massa Marittima her performance was not sufficient.
