-13.6 units for Stage 1.

Didn't go down quite as well. Cyclingnews always inflate their stories of riders illness/injuries. Not the first time I've been burnt by the bastards. Happened 4 times this year so far. Don't believe a word they report. It's made up.

[Bolar Bolabi]

Anyway Stage 1.

1 unit Henderson @ $17
4 units Henderson top 3 @ $4.50

4 units Henderson over McEwen @ $1.85
4 units Henderson over Modolo @ $1.73

3 units Greipel over Petacchi @ $1.85

Based on Greipel's performance yesterday, he's not as sick as what everyone is making out. I do not want to touch those odds on him so have gone with Henderson.

Sky are in pink. If Greipel wins tonight and Henderson doesn't come top three, they will lose the pink jersey. So as usual they should be controlling the stage but should have enough to get the train going at the end.

[Ale10]

Tough luck so far Bolar. I lost on the first stage, had a winning day yesterday. I would win big if the last massive crash wouldn't happen.

Anyway for stage 3:

Petacchi top3 @2.00

Good old Ale-Jet seemed really fast to me. He got closed in with a couple hundred meters to go, lost position. I think he got pushed back to almost the 15th position and he still almost finished top3.

[Bolar Bolabi]

Echelons should happen tonight. I'm thinking Greipel. He's at a reasonable price now and surely he can have a team-mate with him near the end.

I'm giving myself to the team time trial. If nothing happens there, I might just sit on the overalls and most of them should cash.

[Bolar Bolabi]

.5 unit Henderson @ $19
3 units Greipel @ $3.50

3 units Duque over Cooke @ $1.85
2 units Henderson over Brown @ $2.20
3 units Greipel over Petacchi @ $1.65

[Bolar Bolabi]

In-play

5 units Farrar over Petacchi @ $1.85
1 unit Henderson @ $15
.5 unit Sutton @ $61

Over 30km to go. That's it!

[Ale10]

Enoguh of this Duthc bullshit. Crash after crash after crash...

(And Greipel is a choker. Cavendish would win this stage with 3 bike lenghts.)

[Ale10]

Domenico Pozzovivo to finish in top 10 @11 (0.5 units)

[Bolar Bolabi]

Ale, where are you getting the $11 from? Sportingbet have him at 1.85 for top 10 yet he's 9 minutes down.

Agree about Dutch roads. That country should never hold a GT again.

Anyway I'll result those bets later on but Farrar over Petacchi and Greipel over Petacchi were successful.

TTT

3 units Astana over Liquigas @ $1.80
3 units Quick-Step over Lampre @ $1.85
2 units BBox over Ag2r @ $1.72
2 units Garmin over Sky @ $1.75
2.5 units BMC over Cervelo @ $2.80

3 units HTC @ $4
4 units HTC to place @ $1.85

HTC are masters of TTT's. They have the riders capable of pulling out huge short sharp bursts which is required to win a TTT.

Good luck!

Oh, throwing another 2.5 units on Moncoutie for the Climbers jersey @ $4.50 - he has declared this is his aim. As mentioned earlier, I think it's either him, Cunego or Possoni who will win the KOM this year.

[Ale10]

I got it at will hill, they had him @6 now which is still a joke. (He will be top5 in the mountains and the mountains will kill the peloton.)

Btw totally forgot to post my picks for today...

[Bolar Bolabi]

Post them anyway.

BMC did a good time considering they were down to six riders with three quarters of the race to go.

[Ale10]

I had 3 parlays, lost all 3 of them. (1 bad in each, 7W/3L and couldn't win one parlay...)

[Ale10]

Tomorrow i will go with Ale-Jet again. Greipel looks totally out of form, maybe he really was that sick.
