Chris Horner (RadioShack – Leopard) zwyciężył na królewskim etapie Tour of Utah i został nowym liderem imprezy! Drugie miejsce zajął Tom Danielson (Garmin -Sharp),a trzecie Yannick Eijssen (BMC).
Piąty etap Tour of Utah prowadził z Snowbasin Resort do Snowbird Ski and Summer Resort. Meta usytuowana była na podjeździe najwyższej kategorii, a po drodze kolarze mieli jeszcze do pokonania premię górską pierwszej kategorii (Guardsman Pass).
Po kilku atakach na początku etapu, ostatecznie na czele mieliśmy grupkę: Stephen Cummings i Yannick Eijssen (obaj BMC Racing Team), Wesley Sulzberger (Orica-GreenEDGE), Jens Voigt (RadioShack – Leopard), Edward King (Cannondale), Kiel Reijnen (UnitedHealthcare Presented by Maxxis), Michael Torckler (Bissell Pro Cycling), Jesse Anthony (Team Optum p/b Kelly Benefit Strategies), James Stemper (5-hour Energy) i Serghei Tvetcov (Jelly Belly p/b Kenda).
Na podjeździe pod Guardsman Pass sytuacja zmieniała się jak w kalejdoskopie. Z grupki odpadali poszczególni zawodnicy,a peleton dzielił się za sprawą pracy ekipy Garmin. Ostatnią wspinaczkę solo rozpoczął Yannick Eijsen, za nim jechała trójka: Voigt, Tiago Machado (obaj RadioShack – Leopard) i Torckler ze stratą minuty i 35 sekund. Grupka z liderem (Lachlan Morton) traciła dwie minuty i 10 sekund. Po dobrze wykonanej pracy Voigt spasował, tempa Machado nie wytrzymał także Torckler.
7 km przed metą Eijsen prowadził z przewagą około 70 sekund nad Machado i ponad 2 minut nad grupką lidera. Spore szanse na zgarnięcie koszulki lidera miał Machado, który przed etapem tracił do Mortona tylko 45 sekund. Dwa kilometry później na kontrę zdecydowała się trójka: Tom Danielson (Garmin – Sharp), George Bennett (RadioShack – Leopard) i Janier Alexis Acevedo Colle (Jamis – Hagens Berman). Natychmiast zaatakował Danielson, a chwilę później dojechał do niego Chris Horner (RadioShack – Leopard), który jechał wcześniej z kilkusekundową stratą do tej grupki. 4 km przed metą Eijsen został doścignięty przez doświadczoną dwójkę. Po kilometrze Danielson i Horner zostawili Belga i we dwójkę postanowili rozegrać walkę o zwycięstwo etapowe.
Więcej sił i sprytu zachował Horner i to on został zwycięzcą dzisiejszego etapu. Dodatkowo został on nowym liderem wyścigu. Lepszego powrotu po kontuzji Amerykanin nie mógł sobie wymarzyć! Drugi miejsce dla Danielsona, a trzecie dla Eijsena.
