And Contador v Quintana

Contador has lost skin on his knee from yesterday, but will be ok. Takes more chances on descents. Quintana better uphill, still unsure on his descending, & has only recceed stage this morning. Close one.

[Dubai]

Tony Martin 4/11 v De Gendt

Buying money?

[Tonji]

Chvanal in match v DE Gendt

Yep found that also. I'm on Chava. A touch concerned about weather later on this one, but still good imo

[Nico29]

Plenty of firms offering match bets. Must be some value somewhere if one of you experts could wade through and find it for me please

Value now gone from the Peraud match bet.

Still Froome v Field @ 3.00 (weather dependent).

Juggling stuff here, but have heard De Gendt will not be full gas today, not had time to look for a match.

Surely 5/6 v someone who's just had a hospital visit/broken collar bone is ok?

Tony Martin 4/11 v De Gendt

Buying money?

Not quite, but if your pockets are deep! Personally not like the price, but I'm on a budget Dubai  

Remember the stage is technical, really one of the most difficult last ITT in recent history. Thunder storms later. Add in some teams are looking to make bike changes for the descent... plenty of mishaps...

[Dubai]

Ah assumed if one guy wasn't giving it his all against best ITT in world, altho obv course doesn't suit, it would require more than act of god to get him beat.

Fuglsang is an average TT, Peraud a lot better. Peraud will get a pain injection. He's the top French rider in the Tour, he'll still give 100%.

[TightEnd]

Not giving you prices...

Velits v Cadel Evans, what price would you want Velits?

Quintana v Contador, what price would you want Quintana? Evens enough? 5/4? 6/4?

[Tonji]

Right, out in a bit. Rain dance all please for later.

Good luck with your bets.

Fair do's. Was always 5/6 since I saw yr orig mention that's all, thought he'd gone huge odds on or something.

Presume when you posted he was odds against.

Meh, should not be so hasty in future, hopefully this 'misclick' of mine will work out.

Price is always king of crse.

Steered clear of Evans v Velits. I've no info on how Evans is feeling, he's an unpredictable old sod.

Quintana v Contador, I'd have Contador a shade favourite. Close one that I think.

Funking for Fuglsang, Westra to hold and RAIN at about 3pm.

B365 Have Quintana 13/8. I was tempted

Evans has been a bit inconsistent this tour, dropped on a few climbs. Velits is a noted time trialler, I think. B365 5/4 Velits appealed too

warning: a little knowledge is a dangerous thing :-)

do you watch on Europsport or ITV? which and why?

do you watch on Europsport or ITV? which and why?

Oooh this is a toughy. I prefer itv's commentary mainly because I grew up with liggett and sherwin doing the channel 4 half an hour highlights and basically their commentary = cycling to me.

Having said that itv having breaks in the last hour of the race constantly tilts me greatly, they missed froomes break on the 1st mountain stage aka the most significant point of the day and possibly the tour.

So I am currently a Eurosport guy.
