America's Cup hero Peter Burling's slipped back to 15th overall after Day three of sailing's Moth World Championships in Italy.

The 26-year old could only manage eighth and eleventh in the day's two races after taking a spill in both contests in what were challenging conditions on Lake Garda, with multiple boats capsizing.

Defending champion Paul Goodison remains unbeaten atop the leaderboard, while Oracle tactician Tom Slingsby sits in third place with three days remaining.
