 The Tour hits Andorra, billed as the Queen stage & expected to be another GC battle. We'll see, after today's surprise tactics, what does Sky have in mind. Another crushing stage win, or revert to controlling & squeezing the fight out of the peloton. Think it's 50/50 for a break to succeed. So a small bet on Diego Rosa (again), he rolled in with the gruppetto, so is either saving himself for today, or F**ked. 100/1. Been impressed with both Dan Martin & Purito. As good a start to a Tour as I remember. Both live in Andorra & know the route well. Either could nick the yellow jersey with a well timed attack & bonus seconds. Around 12/1 is not much to go on though. Anyone got thoughts? |

Is there any scenario where Henao can win today's stage? riding well, won't have to do much work during the day so Poels and Nieve can take it pretty deep. Could well attack late on and then if they all look at each other he could forge on whilst Movistar get organised. Longshot but 66/1 with beteveryday.

Like it. Henao has looked really good on the climbs. |

Diego Rosa is in the first break, in with a chance if it sticks.

Contador abandons with a fever. Strange he tried to get into the break, if he was suffering? |

Still there, getting a good sweat! Looking strong. The break will make it also. |

Chapeau Yatesy. What a ride.
I'd love to see Orica get the Yates twins and Chaves in the same TdF team. Could do some real damage. Such a talented trio.

Keep getting huge prices peeps in breakaway but if it succeeds favourites seem to get there this year. Feels like last year there was alot more unkown quantities and bookie ricks. Loads of times last year they inplayed tez prices eg greipel would be 16/1 to win a stage where it was 50/50 the breakaway stayed out there, when hes evens if it came to a sprint (last tour). Pleased majka didnt win as I basically looked for peeps who did well or won mountain stages last tour, then refused at prices case he ended up helping elsewhere.
