Just two early notes.
That Deceuninck Quick-Step line-up looks very good for the team competition should they so choose. Sadly no betting out locally yet.
Trek confirmed an hour or so ago that Nibali will be riding. Over the past 10 years he has ridden 7 times and podiumed on 6 of those. He has been out for six weeks with a wrist injury but looked fine at Tirreno before the training crash. He also likes going into Grand Tours slightly undercooked and improving all through.
Giro 2021 Out Right
1-3
Nibali @ 9/1

Giro Notes.
Had a look at the route/teams/books etc and only have two comments.
In SA the books usually drop that top 10 option once a tour starts so need to take that up front. Would really appreciate it if they carry it into the tour.
Secondly, the climbs on stages 4/6/9 are not tough enough for large gaps on the GC so Overall/KOM punts can probably be held back until stage 13. Stage 14 is the first big challenge.
My Out Rights
Nibbles explained above. Last year Knox finished 37m-41s down. Of that time 26m-58s was shed on stage 18 when he clutched. He bounced back on the final stages and finished 14th.
Except for Groenewegen Caleb eats all the other sprinters for breakfast and he can climb a little vis Two seconds at Milan San Remo
INEOS won the team comp last year with two Italians in their ranks. They also lost Thomas on stage 3 and Puccio on stage 15. This time they have three locals.

I am apparently odd-man-out on Evenepoel. I know the guys a bit of a pratt - even his countryman and the GOAT Eddie says so - and Remco confirmed this by saying Groenewegen will get a hostile reception from the peloton - he should know at age 21 and in his first Grand Tour.
Several cycling pundits are picking him to win so I am whacking a few beers on an out right double
Giro Out Right
Evenepoel/Yates - Bardet/Sivikov @ 57/10
I see Will Newton is pulling for Bardet and I think on form he is the best at over 20% gradient in the last km - so not a bad choice.

8km ITT is just too short to to get serious about on the punting side so taking a double and a long shot for a few beers. Plus, it's Grand Tour cycling so take a few days to study the form.
Vlasov/Pozzovivo - Almeida/Bettiol @ 23/10
and a podium possibility
1-3

Admit it guys, None of you have ever managed to pick a winner or podium contender who has finished stone last - in this case 184th from 184 riders. Do you laugh or do you cry?

Painful!
Dont believe Paddy Bevin should be 500/1 today; pretty sure hes gonna be sprinting and going for the PTS jersey.

Im hoping Matteo Moschetti makes it over the lumps and bumps for the sprint @250/1
If not also on young Alessandro Covi of UAE who should be a threat @80/1

One of those days where it's probably worth looking down the list and having a stab as the expected wet weather could lead to all sorts of chaos.
Mohoric @ 33/1
Vendrame @ 40/1
Gallopin @ 200/1 (wind that clock back old boy!)
Conti @ 200/1
Consonni over Bevin (I don't think Bevin is fighting fit yet) @ 12/10

Nil for me but Tony G almost produced for Couch.
187km Into a head wind with bad weather and no little ramps for a decent break to form today. I'm going with a few beers up front and may take a run in-play.

Win
Goossens @ 40/1
Izzagirri @ 80/1
De Marchi @ 100/1

I like Gorka if the weather is terrible.
I reckon the big boys will be walking on egg shells today as it could prove to be one of those stages that you can lose the race but you can't win it. I don't think anyone really wants pink so early either so I won't be surprised to see the break get the job done.
If it does come down to GC I reckon we will see DQS and Ineos play the team game. Evenpoel and Sivakov to go early and Almeida and Bernal to hold on to the coat tails and then win the sprint if it all comes together. Bernal will love the shortish steep climbs (not long enough to stuff up his back) and he has a very hand sprint so he would be my pick - I'll just throw him into a few multies for the weekend.
My other darts:
Giovani Visconti @ 33/1 - Lost a big chunk of time today so think he is eyeing a break soon.
Simon Carr @ 66/1 (Ditto above)
Jay Hindley @ 80/1
Taaramae @ 200/1
Caruso @ 200/1
Cataldo @ 400/1

Gutted for Landa! Showed plenty of gritt on a tough stage in tricky condition yesterday and then gets knocked out inside the final 10km on a pan flat sprint stage. The highs and lows of cycling right there.

Ineos won't drive hard without Sivakov I don't think (still plenty of road left for Bernal to fire up his challenge), Jumbo don't have incentive or the team and Bahrain now also out of the mix. BikeX don't have the team to drive and DQS will know with Evenpoel and that last TT they basically have pink already so it's up to the others to mount a challenge and try and edge out some time where they can. Isarael can't contain a break on their own so to me this seems a break stage with the lumpy early roads also in favour of this.
Bring out the darts: (The Jeff & Jan show for me today)
Jefferson Cepeda @ 25/1
Geoffrey Bouchard @ 66/1

Throwing in Ciccone who could win from the peloton but I am also leaning towards the break. Can't see the point of GC teams chasing down all the breaks for a possible stage win when the finish is just not difficult enough and you would be sprinting from a bunch of 20 or so.

Ciccone @ 16/1

I see WSB still carrying Top 10 - Good for them. Odds are sadly out so I expect any bets will be voided eg Carthy 5/2 or Bilbao 16/1?
Flat stage today with small 300m ramp 1.5km out. Not enough to prevent sprinters catching up - But - what if an ITT rider gets there with a 5 sec lead? Often seen in last 3-4km.
Giro Stage 7
Cavagna @ 200/1
Evenepoel @ 250/1
None of the match bets appeal today

Looks like a break day. Weather in my neck of the woods absolute rubbish so will risk a few extra beers on the break up-front today as I expect to be inside all day.
Giro Stage 8
De Gendt @ 33/1
Rubio @ 50/1
Goossens @ 80/1
Fiorelli @ 100/1
Petilli @ 200/1
Ghebreigzabhier @ 400/1
Brandle @ 750/1
Taken a little 1-3 on the last three.

We are half way through the Giro sprint stages and are now approaching the break away stages where I believe the points jersey will be decided. I have been quite impressed by this rider and I think a podium is well within his reach as the usual Nizzolo/Viviani types are just not climbing as well.
Points Jersey
1-3 Cimolai @ 6/1

Nice job getting the early Bernal price KC - into around 6/1 now
Personally I think the break will stick again today and firing some familiar darts - a bit bigger than normal because had a good weekend on the rugby - also making my 1st move into the outright markets
Outright Winner
2 units Carthy at 12/1
1 unit Buchmann at 66/1
Stage 9
2 units Mollema at 12/1
1 unit Bettiol at 33/1
0.5 u Bouman at 66/1
0.5u Narvaez at 150/1

Had high hopes for our two long shots until Quick Step tried to see what damage they could cause in the tail wind 15km out. Knocked around 40sec off the lead in under 3km which made all the difference. Good pick from KC.
Nothing further on the out rights today but keeping an eye on a possible Bardet Top 3. Will need to decide before Stage 14.
Giro Stage 10
Win
Groenewegen @ 16/1
And in the unlikely event that the peloton misjudge the break a few beers on

Ill be trying to avoid the spoilers until after work too!
Hoping George Bennett @150/1 gets in the break, took second in Il Lombardia this year.

I honestly can't see anything but a Bernal show. Is in superb form, has a mountainbiking bakcground and looked good at Strade B last time out. Ineos have also shown that they are in the mood to cause chaos.
Price is very short but I can't see things going any other way so a nibble on Bernal at 9/2 and if I see an in running opportunity when it's clear no break can make it then I might add a bit more hopefully at around 2/1.
Fly young man fly!!
Match Bet:
Soler over Caruso @ 27/20
Double - Bettiol over Guerreiro & Valter over Vervaeke @ 13/10

Unless the break is tiny I don't see any reason for INEOS to chase it down. The finish is just not hard enough to gain good time and the little technical downhill before the last km looks too dodgy to risk full taps for GC contenders. As Couch points out one can always take Bernal in-play.

I am not taking sides here but I always check the odds before off and Evenepoel/Bernal @ 14/10 at Sunnies is too long.

Very frustrating when key domestiques are not giving free reign to win a cracking stage and are instead used to maintain a Top 10 finish for the likes of Tobias Foss.

Wow what a stage although not a good one betting wise for me with Remco taking some body shots - Buchmann at least in from 66/1 to 16/1
2 small darts today and half a unit on
Bennett 22/1
De Marchi 50/1

So young Evenepoel experienced his first ever days racing after a rest day - did not come out as planned. Amazing job from Almeida to keep him in contention. Had high hopes for my man Gavazzi in the break and he looked top 5 good until 10km to go when the lights went out.
I reckon today has to be break and a large one at that. To the best of my knowledge my record for crap picks is Nil in a break of 39. I hope that record is not broken today

Thankfully had upfront bets yesterday. If not I could have picked 8 from the 16 in the break and would not have got Vendrame. Stiffs on the Bennett pick Brent - hate it when a bet goes down because of terminal stupidity.
Has to be a bunch sprint today but the old punting instincts always go - What If?

Groenewegen @ 7/2
and a few beers
