Classic » Quaregnon › Dour (201k) - Start time 11am
Another semi-classic from Belgium this morning. This one though is in the French speaking part, Wallonia. Actually, Le Samyn is more like a Flemish race with its short, sharp climbs and cobbled sections. The organisers have changed the route this year too. This often ends in a bunch sprint but there is a challenging section of pave 2km from the end that could well see the finale contested by a small group or lone break. We get to see this one as well, live on Eurosport from 2.15pm
Three small bets each way for me (3 places, PP) Kristian Sbaragli (MTN Quebeka) 22/1 Stijn Vandenbergh (Etixx) 33/1 Johan Le Bon (FDJ) 150/1
