Take your pick! I'm going for Sastre, so that should be him out of it now!

| I think Klumpton is a week away from the form he needs to rip them up so I think Pereiro will hold on to the dream. And what a performance it will be! |

| I'll give Evans one last chance today...more in hope than expectation. In truth, it's too close to call. GREAT! |

| Well the heart says Sastre ,.. just for the courage he showed to take on the Tour singlehanded yesterday, none of the other current contenders appear to be prepared to stick their head above the parapet... Menchov excepted and he blew |
