Stage 9

McEwens turn to win I think. Bennati and Cavendish to round out the top three.

Cavendish all the way. Robbie's days are past I am affraid.

Ok, then I have to go for Bennati. :)

I will go Bennati. Cav still cant position himself to save himself.

He's clearly the fastest guy out there, but he certainly ain't the strongest and I have to agree that his positioning in the sprints has been pretty bad. If he could get that right he'd be practically unbeatable.

nope

Mcewen will go winless in the GTsHe's been written off before. He beat Bennati in a straight sprint only 2 1/2 weeks ago.

Another one for Bennati. :) And I agree that, while he is not looking his best so far, I would not count out McEwen.

Bennati very good. A strong looking Bettini gets himself once again behind the wrong rider, and therefore reacts too late to Bennati to finish second for second race in a row. Another one for Bennati. :) And I agree that, while he is not looking his best so far, I would not count out McEwen.
