I just realized I picked Howson last year who scored 17 points in the national ITT.
Dillier scored again 10 points.
And on to the next races:
Herald Sun Tour (2.1)

Mutschi not only has Fernandez and Ewan, but also Howson, Hepburn, Dillier and Boswell.
AlPacino took second this month despite not having the month's top scorer: Ewan, Sepulveda, Formolo and Bonifazio gaining him most of his points.
The only team missing Ewan didn't do too badly: Del1962 came 3rd in the month, mainly through Fernandez and Sepulveda.
Formolo has been an important scorer throughout the game, and is the second top player to have been selected (behind Adam Yates), Bonifazio and Dillier swap 4th and 5th place in the 13 months of the game to date, and Sepulveda and Fernandez enter the top 15.
There are not many changes in the overall ranking: although he was a fairly modest 9th in the monthly table, GP Blanco is the most significant mover, up 5 places to 6th. There is no movement among the top 5

I'm liking the concept of this game more and more as it goes on. Now we have a year of hindsight, but with 2 years still to go. Let's pick apart my team going into year 2:
ALAPHILIPPE Julian - has certainly shown his potential, carving out a niche at a difficult-to-crack QuickStep team. I almost picked him in the main game this year too, so I'm confident he'll grow to the 6-700 point level this year, and barring injury, remain a great pick. Verdict: SUCCESS so far.
EWAN Caleb - despite an unexpectedly slow first year, he's still the gold standard. I'd be surprised if he wasn't in the top 3 scoring riders in this game by the end of next year. Verdict: DISAPPOINTMENT so far (less so if you consider Aussie nats, but I'm thinking about 2014 only), but is likely to turn things around.
FORMOLO Davide - seems a solid pick as well; dunno how much he can move up in CQ points, he'll probably start doing higher level races and GTs and be less of a GC guy on the Can-Garm team, but I expect him to feature in all races like he did last year. Verdict: BIG SUCCESS so far.
HANSEN Lasse Norman - whoops, picked the wrong Dane between him and Valgren Andersen. Pretty anonymous so far, and didn't show much last year. Plus he's now like the 20th best guy on Can-Garm. I'm regretting it a bit, but he still has 2 years. Verdict: DISAPPOINTMENT so far.
HENAO MARIN Sebastian - He's still a bit young and buried at Sky so I don't expect a ton of points, but he's really good. I expect top 20 Giro and a bit more consistency this year. By the end of next year, he could be winning things. Verdict: JURY IS OUT so far.
HEPBURN Michael - I saw him win the Aussie TT last year and was worried he'd go to the road and score a ton of points so I picked him, but he really hasn't. He's a good sprinter and TTer, so I know he has the potential. But he's just not pulling it together yet. Second guessing a bit. Verdict: JURY IS OUT so far.
HERKLOTZ Silvio - I don't get why he hasn't turned pro yet; he seems to be moving sideways at Stolting. I thought when I picked him he'd have a year of 200 points on a continental team and then move up to the bigs, but that second part hasn't happened. If he steps up next year and gets 6-800 points (which he should if he's that good, and with that extra year of U23 he'll be damn ready), he'll be worth it, but I'm second guessing that pick too. Verdict: DISAPPOINTMENT so far.
HOWSON Damien - Didn't really live up to his promise last year as an elite TT talent, and is a bit buried at TT-rich Greenedge. If he doesn't do much better this year, I'll be regretting it. Verdict: DISAPPOINTMENT so far.
KUDUS GHEBREMEDHIN Merhawi - solid year, good performer - his 2014 was actually better than I expected. This year I expect a few more points from slightly lower placings in slightly bigger races. Then next year I think he'll take off. Verdict: SUCCESS so far.
LAMPAERT Yves - he developed as I hoped, scoring consistently while finishing highly. It will be interesting to see how he works on the bigger QuickStep squad, whether he even makes the big classic lineups (I hope not - I think he can score bigger in the 1.1 races than being an early-attack foil in the Ronde or something). That's always a gamble, that you get a TSV guy that shows something and gets picked up by a team where he'll be buried - can't all be Sep Vanmarcke and go to Garmin or something. We shall see. Verdict: SUCCESS so far.
MOHORIC Matej - I knew he was too young last year, but his kind of talent doesn't stagnate (unless your last name is 'Sicard'), so I expect increasing returns in both this year and next. Verdict: JURY IS OUT so far.
OLIVIER Daan - showed some solid progress in his neo-pro year; now I just need those 8th-15th place finishes in stage races to turn into top 6 results. Verdict: MILD SUCCESS so far.
SENECHAL Florian - was quietly solid... if he'd just get a bit louder in his results, increase by 150 points this year and then next, I'll be happy. Verdict: MILD SUCCESS so far.
SEPULVEDA Eduardo - had a great year last year, is off to a great start this year, can climb and TT. Let's see if he takes a step up, maybe top 20 in Le Tour? SUCCESS so far.
STUYVEN Jasper - had a promising neo-pro year, but this is the year he steps it up, if he's going to. Four 4th places in La Vuelta (albeit against a depleted sprinting field) suggests quickness and consistency that, if played as a foil against Cancellara, can serve him well in the shorter 1.1 and 1.HC classics. JURY IS OUT so far.
YATES Adam - did you see him last year? If he grows from there he's the best pick of the game. BIG SUCCESS so far.
YATES Simon - badly timed broken collarbone led to a comeback and trial-by-fire in Le Tour, which is a great learning experience but not a big points-getter. I expect him to explode this year. MILD SUCCESS so far.
ZABEL Rick - anonymous last year, I'm looking for some improvement and his father's trademark consistency. If he can get better in the sprints and pick up some placings all the time like his dad did, he'll be gold by the end of next year. JURY IS OUT so far.
For those of you keeping score at home:
Big Successes - Adam Yates, Formolo
Successes - Alaphillipe, Kudus, Lampaert, Sepulveda
Mild Successes - Olivier, Seneschal, Simon Yates
Jury is Out - Henao, Hepburn, Mohoric, Stuyven, Zabel

10 points, Stuyven came in on 21st place in the Drome Classic thus missing 5 points for 20th place.
I don't know what happened over the winter with the Yates brothers and Magnus Cort Nielsen who lost quite some time in their first two races.

Bonifazio, with his Lugano win and third in Estruchi, is not only the top selected rider this month, but has overtaken Adam Yates as the most valuable player in the game.
Top selected riders this month:
(Name/points/teams)
BONIFAZIO Niccolo 180 4
SEPULVEDA Eduardo 88 5 (Sud Ardeche win, and a few Haut Var points)
JARAMILLO DIEZ Daniel Alexander 60 1 (2nd in nationals)
GOUGEARD Alexis 56 8 (4th in Etile de Besseges)
HOWSON DAMIEN 55 30 (mainly Herald Sun Tour)
EWAN Caleb 50 44 (2 stage wins and a second in Herald Sun)
KONRAD Patrick 44 5 (10th in Oman GC)
LATOUR Pierre-Roger 40 4 (Etoile de Besseges)
STUYVEN Jasper 34 36

19 Karaev 210
20 Hilltop_Finisher 206
The top four, not surprisingly, all have Bonifazio. Al Pacino has just about as good a team as possible: he also has Sepulveda, Gougeard, Howson and Ewan: that is first, second, fourth, fifth and sixth of the month's scorers.
Our long term leader, Ludwigzgz, is the top of the non-Bonifazio teams this month, so extends his lead yet again in the overall standings, but not by much, because the second highest scoring non-Bonifazio team is second placed Skidmark. These two are beginning to leave the rest of us behind.
Standings
Al Pacino was by a long way the biggest mover, but his 9 place leap only took him to 13th. The same teams are still in the top ten, and of them the only teams moving up (2 places each) are GPBlanco and Rote Laterne.

I have only riders in Tirreno-Adriatico next week.
Tirreno-Adriatico (2.UWT)
CORT NIELSEN Magnus
KONRAD Patrick

All of them could score points or be a total fail.

Now that the 'real' season has started and it's the second year of this game, I'm going to pay attention a little closer. Good news this week as Lampaert is following exactly the trajectory I would have hoped from him. I was actually a bit worried that he made the jump to QST this year because he could easily be buried, but using him in West Vlaanderen is great for his development. Looks like he's fast, he can TT, and he can stay at the head of a classic. Could be a good guy for the Eneco Tour too, and then maybe some of the bigger classics next year when he develops his engine a bit more.
Anyway, this is what's coming up:
Paris-Nice
Simon Yates
Senechal
Alaphilippe
Sepulveda
Langkawi
Ewan
Henao
Howson
Kudus
Tirenno
Zabel
Adam Yates
Formolo
Stuyven
So, 12 out of the 18. Lampaert just won, of course, but the lack of space for Daan Olivier is curious. Mohoric and Hansen I get in a deep Cannondale team, and Herklotz is of course still continental, but I'm not quite sure what's up with Hepburn's road career; I really thought he was focusing more time to it as time went on.

Well, Ewan and Henao scored well in Langkawi. My third biggest scorer was Herklotz, who got 16 points from the Istrian Spring Trophy... at least he's off the board...
