Today should be a cracking stage so I have taken a look and fancy a bet on Dan Martin to take it, so have left that up on the exchange if anyone fancies laying that.
In terms of reasoning there are risks to it obviously. A break could be left to go today but I think the fact Froome poached some time bonuses yesterday will mean that Movistar are more interested in keeping some of those in play again at the end so hopefully the big players are there at the end. I am hoping Quintana and Froome are watching each other today waiting for later in the tour for the real fireworks so think another decent climber may be able to attack. I considered a few such as Rodriguez, Valverde, Majka but I have been quietly impressed with Martin so far so he will carry the hard earned today.
A yawnfest ,can you imagine raving about the sport and then showing somebody a mountain stage where the elite riders roll in together with barely a whimper of effort to go clear.
