Wild, who rides for the Cylance team, triumphed following the 132.8 kilometres journey from Eibergen to Arnhem.

The World Championships bronze medallist crossed the line comfortably in front of the chasing pack to clinch 10 bonus seconds.

Lensworld-Kuota's Maria Giulia Confalonieri of Italy came through to take second place and six bonus seconds.

Lisa Brennauer of Germany, who competes for Canyon SRAM, was third for the second consecutive stage after she also finished in that position during yesterday's 4.3km prologue.

Van Vleuten, the winner of the opening stage, remains in contention for the overall International Cycling Union (UCI) Women’s WorldTour after finishing in the 22-rider bunch.

All of the cyclists in the pack recorded the same time and the Dutchwoman, who rides for the Orica-Scott team, is still five seconds in front of compatriot and Team Sunweb rider Ellen van Dijk.

Boels Dolmans' Amy Pieters was the other Dutch athlete in the top five as she did enough for fourth place today.

Van Vleuten is chasing down fellow Dutch compatriot Anna van der Breggen, the reigning Olympic road racing champion, in the race for the overall WorldTour crown.

Van Der Breggen could only manage to finish six seconds behind the leaders but is still the one to beat.

She is now 21 seconds adrift in the Ladies Tour of Holland standings after two stages but leads nearest challenger Katarzyna Niewiadoma of Poland, who rides for WM2, by 12.

The event continues with a 16km time trial in Roosendaal tomorrow.

The Ladies Tour of Holland is the penultimate event on the UCI Women's WorldTour.
