Trott had begun the day top of the standings, following the first three events, but faced a strong challenge from the United States’ Sarah Hammer, who she had beaten to gold at the London 2012 Olympic Games.

Solid results in the time trial and flying lap events gave Trott an 18-point advantage over her rival ahead of the points race, with the Briton able to maintain that margin to finish the event on a total of 188 points.

Hammer settled for silver on 170, while France’s Laurie Berthon ended four points further back to complete the podium positions.

“I think this track, because it's quite grippy, I think it took the steam out of everybody and it ended up just being a race where you could just follow and sit in a lot more,” Trott said afterwards.

“I've really enjoyed it actually.

"I wasn't looking forward to the points race - after three days doing the team pursuit as well yesterday it really did take it out of me and I was worried how I was going to feel.”

Having missed the second leg of the World Cup, Trott missed out on the overall World Cup omnium title by eight points, with The Netherlands’ Kirsten Wild winning on 108.

Trott’s team-mate Mark Cavendish, who is vying to be Britain’s men’s omnium rider at Rio 2016, missed out on a podium finish after he was only able to earn fourth place on 147 points.

France’s Thomas Boudat clinched gold by ending the two-day event on 181 points, with the result also enabling him to secure the overall men’s omnium World Cup crown.

Reigning Olympic champion Lasse Norman Hansen ended as the runner-up on 175, with the Danish cyclist ending three clear of Kazakhstan’s Artyom Zakharov.

Australia’s Patrick Constable emerged as the winner of the men’s sprint event, after defeating China’s Xu Chao in straight rides in the gold medal contest.

Meanwhile, the battle for the bronze medal saw the reigning Olympic champion Jason Kenny go head-to-head with the 2014 world champion Francois Pervis of France.

Britain’s Kenny claimed the final spot on the podium after winning in straight rides, as the pair build towards the UCI World Track Cycling Championships in March, where Pervis will aim to defend two titles in London.

Poland’s Damian Zielinski was crowned as the overall World Cup winner for the discipline.

The women’s keirin event saw Lithuania’s Simona Krupeckaite claim gold, ahead of Australia’s Stephanie Morton and the home favourite Lee Wai Sze, who earned her second medal of the weekend.

Lee’s third place helped her to finish as the runner-up in the overall standings on 330 points, with China’s Shuang Guo winning on 367.
