Does Ale-Jet still have it or will the mean little McEwen show him what for. CSC's new sprinter is looking pretty good.

I think I'll go for McEwen to draw first blood.
 
Well, since you've picked McEwen I'll go with Hushovd.
Successful breakaway isn't excluded too.

I think it will be a messy sprint, and an outsider could win.

I will choose Mcewen or Furlan in those circumstances. Perhaps Fernandez, someone who just gets the perfect run and might be 20th wheel at 500 metres but just gets a lucky wheel.

Mcewen will be riding on Petacchi's wheel from 3 kms out. So the above scenario applies to others.

I hope Furlan does not have to work for Hushovd, and he gets a free role.
 
Can't really see past McEwen for the sprint win. Though maybe that climb 5 miles out from the finish could disrupt him slightly. Haedo should get a high placing.
