Pro Tour Pundit - Milano-San Remo
Time for La Primavera. Will it be a sprint? Will there be a successful move on the Poggio? Freire, Petacchi, Cancellara, Gilbert, Hushovd... lotsa riders fancying their chances this year. Someone else, maybe?

Note this year that the finish is not on the Via Roma. Instead, the race finishes on Lungomare Calvino, which adds an extra couple of hundred metres to the run-in (and by the look of it, a sharp right-hander with 400m to go).
Gazzetta has a provisional start list:

But there's another one here too:

Race is on Saturday. There appears to be live coverage from 2pm on Eurosport 2, and also streaming on cycling.tv from 1.50pm. Deadline: say 1pm on Saturday.

hrm.. I got a sneaky feeling it might be Oscar Freire but the odds for Bonen are quite good also.. I think I am going to go for Alessandro Petacchi as he won in 2005..

My uno, due,tre (for what it's worth) are Hoshovd, Gasparotto, Gilbert and I won't be able to watch so hopefully won't jinx it!'Faith is believing in something when common sense tells you not to''Google can bring back a hundred thousand answers. A librarian can bring you back the right one.'
