Classic  »  Antwerpen  ›  Schoten   (200k)



Run from Antwerp to Schoten, this sprinter's classic has beome the Marcel Kittel benefit with the big German winning the last three and he'll surely be a big favourite for this one. 200km long, with several cobbled sections but hardly any climbing, the wind is probably the best chance of this not ending in a bunch sprint. Cavendish, who won this in 2007, 2008 and 2011 is taking time off and will not take part. The main contenders for Kittel's crown will probably be Greipel and especially Kristoff on this season's form.



Coverage Nothing on Eurosport for this one unfortunately so cyclinghub's streams it is

PP offered 7/1 Kristoff for all of yesterday, presumably thinking that this would be a recovery ride for him. Either that or they didn't realise Kittel is out due to a virus. Recovery ride or not, I don't think there is another man around with such a voracious appetite for victory as Kristoff at the moment and 7/1 was a cracking price, win only.

Tom Van Asbroeck my other bet in this, 40/1 each way.

Would be tempted to buy this from Cycling.TV but I subscribed last year and only used it for the Omloop.

I like Viviani and someone from MTN away from Kristoff. No bets unless I can get pictures.

No bets for me, hardly any prices around, no coverage on TV, and I couldn't really find an angle I am totally satisfied with although MC makes a valid point, and on that basis I would go Kristoff, also. Good luck to all, SP

Kristoff causes crash and takes down 70 riders, and wins

Wow the guy just loves winning Grin

Looked like a Saxo Tinkoff rider that came off first, not sure Kristoff can be held to account for that one

Congratulations MC, landed a lovely price there mate!

That Edward Theuns is really coming along in leaps-and-bounds, another one of the young Belgians that really continues to impress.

Cheers,
SP

Quite right, shame about Tom Van Asbroeck though, he was heavily involved in that crash today
Report SwingingPick April 9, 2015 10:27 AM BST
Kristoff did not cause that crash, I was pretty sure that was the case yesterday, but on review it's quite evident it wasn't his fault. SP
