Tonights Stage - Interesting Fact-
The Tour has climbed Plateau de Beille three times and on each occasion, the stage winner has gone on to claim the yellow jersey in Paris. Will today's winner follow Marco Pantani (1998), Lance Armstrong (2002) and Alberto Contador (2007)?

That being said I like Frank Schleck @ $7, with Ryder Hessjedal @ $101 ($26 place) a value outsider

Some big differences in the betting for Contador
$3 FAV - Sportingbet
$4 FAV Tattsbet
$4.65 2nd FAV - Sportsbet
$5 2nd FAV - Centrebet

On Greipel tonight @ $9.40.

Cav will be hard to beat as usual but hopefully with some luck we can nab him... long wind up to this sprint too which should help Greipel

Cav another win, HTC just to good on the flat stages.

Tonight's stage looks perfect for a breakaway so put a few small bets on and hope some end up in it.... 3 members of Team Sky, they've lost theyre main man Wiggins so have been going for stage wins and all these 3 are chances

Luis Leon Sanchez @ 23
Gerrans @ 34
Thomas @ 44
EBH @ 17.5

Just reading an interesting article about a phone call with Simon Gerrans, the Aussie we got bets on tonight, done yesterday.

He was talking about on Stage 9 when he was looking to get into the break. The first 50km of the day there would've been 100 attacks of people trying to get away. He covered all of them and then let one go thinking it wouldn't last but it did and that was the break that succeeded.

So it's not as easy as saying your going to be in the breakaway... On a stage like today he said 80% of the peleton is wanting to get away, just got to be lucky to be in the one that works..

I didn't realise it was that tough but does make sense

Atleast he said he would deiniftely be trying to get into it tonight...

Nah I only got him at 34s.
Mr Willy did some smart shopping..

75km down, every Tom Dick and Harry has tried to get into a break but still none have worked. Pretty funny watching them all try and fail

Breakaway is home, now to get the winner.
They need to drop Hushovd on the climb, because if he is there at the finish he will win.
