The Slovenian took the leader's blue jersey from Ineos' Filippo Ganna after sealing his fifth win of the season with an impressive late burst in Bellante.

"After the whole team's big day, I thought I had to go for it," said Team UAE's Pogacar.

He attacked with 500 metres remaining to edge out Jumbo-Visma's Jonas Vingegaard and Frenchman Victor Lafay.

The 23-year-old Pogacar, who won the Strade Bianche last weekend, now boasts a nine-second advantage over Belgian Remco Evenepoel in the general classification.

Italian Ganna is a further 12 seconds back in third place.

Friday's fifth stage is a 155km hilly ride from Sefro to Fermo.

"Tomorrow will be a bit like today," said Pogacar. "You'll have to be very focused."
