I'd like to see him bag a Tour stage or two, for him and the team.

Well... Chris Horner's may come close this year. Not as many wins... but stage racers rarely do have as many as sprinters. Still... won Pais-Vasco and a stage in the race, 2nd in Sardegna, top 10's in the Tour de France, Crit Internationale, Amstel Gold, Liege-Bastogne-Liege, Dauphine Libere and Tour of California.

I always find it hard to compare sprinters and GC guys. I guess I'd still give it to Farrar with his wins in Vattenfall, Scheldeprijs, two Giro stages, 2 tour stage podiums, top 5's in the Omloop and RVV and Zeeland win. He'll definitely have it by the end of the season unless Horner pulled a shocker at Lombardia.

If this list is exhaustive (it may not be, I don't know), don't forget one stage of the Three Days of De Panne. I was there and it was a lovely sprint. :)
