    I know – turns out Capecchi was a bad pick but I really expected him to go well, Moreno-style, if not quite to the same extent. Up there in the early summit finishes, and top 10 in the mountains. Not happened so far though…

    There’s now 23 guys with a 3-minute lead, including a few decent climbers. Really can’t call this one – have the GC guys let the break go or will they push on again on the climb?

    Edet in for someone. Can’t remember who? Looks like there might be some GC action today as the two groups have only got a few seconds. Someone just bumped into someone having a piss! Looks like Barguil’s having a go again.

    Looks like the break is set – 1:28 with 67km to go…

    Txurruka
    Nerz
    Flecha
    CA Sorensen
    Egoi Martinez
    Sijmens
    Huzarski
    Uran
    Kohler

    I have a quid each way on Nerz at 200/1 so fingers crossed on that – more likely they won’t let them get too far unfortunately…

    57km gone and no break can get clear. Edet won the first KOM, Valverde the first sprint. A good 40km to the next KOM so should see the break form fairly soon…

    Result, only just realised it was a rest day tomorrow, makes me feel better only having banked 1 transfer, saying that I might of made 2 transfers today had I known.

    I too have Edet in… hoping Txurruka will do some breakaway action.

    Otherwise it’s GC fellas all the way. Banked a solitary transfer so will be able to play around a bit before Wednesday’s transition stage.

    Anton out for Edet was my transfer too. In fact we have the same top seven, with my two random break guys Mate and Aramendia. Not expecting much, would be nice to get someone in the break today though, 28 people in yesterday and I didn’t have any of them!
