Also considered Chalapud from Team Colombia who seems to be in decent form - but stuck with Weening on the grounds that a grizzled old Dutchman will probably do better than a fresh-faced South American.

I nearly went with Chalapud too - the main reason I didn't is that they're not riding Liege, so I wanted my cheap pick to be someone that I didn't need to waste a transfer on for Sunday...
You're right - lots of Columbians riding well at the moment - can't wait to see them attack in the Giro!

Gilbert
Martin
Mollema
Ulissi
Quintana
Henao

Yes, thanks. Got in five minutes or so after my post, so all is well now. I think.

How happy am I that I selected Primin Lang, now hanging on at the front as the peloton bears down. That should be 10 points in the bag!

Chuffed with today - 7 scorers in standard and 6 in purist - way better than I expected. And the guys I chose Denifl ahead of all finished behind him, so at least my silly risk didn't cost me any points!

Looks like I picked the right Colombians but the wrong Spaniard (I did briefly consider Moreno, before going the full J-Rod). Oh well, a half-decent performance and certainly taking some attention away from the utter car crash that is my Trentino team.

At work so didn't see any of this but from secretly following on Twitter sounded like a cracking finish. Looking forward to seeing it when I get in.

Porte and Quintana did diddly squat! I'm starting to get annoyed with these "loaded" teams the big boys send out.

In hindsight it seems obvious Moreno was going to be given his shot today.
