Eneco Stage 7

Right I'm back for the final Eneco stage, which is basically a bit like the Amstel Gold race. After taking the stage and race win today Tim Wellens will need to be able to cover relentless attacks from a very very strong Boom and the rest of the contenders as well.



The good news for Tim is that he has a stronger team than Dumoulin and should be able to rely on Vanendert to work for him shutting down attacks plus in any kind of bunch sprint Wellens has a good sprint. This will mean that Belkin will try and make the day a hard one and hope Wellens suffers. Also BMC will probably try and set up the race for Gilbert and GVA again, and the bonus seconds at sprint points should be a target for belkin as well. So its hard to see how a break stays away.

I think we will see another day of relentless attacks but the most likely scenario for me is a reduced bunch sprint from the GC men.

I'm going for Keukeleire again today. 1pt win at 20/1 BV

I'm also going to have a bit of Breschel. 0.4pt win at 40/1 BV
