(Had to change Fleche Wallone pick because Valverde is not going to Fleche Wallone this year. Too close to the Worlds is the reason. This has apparently been made official through the team today.)

Alaphilippe isn't winning Lombardia, he isn't riding iirc.

 

[RedheadDane]

Alaphilippe isn't winning Lombardia, he isn't riding iirc.

Minor detail!

 

[BlueRoads]

Alaphilippe isn't winning Lombardia, he isn't riding iirc.

Hey, don't give hints like that, that's lost possibilities for me to make up points. (Feel free, though, to point out cases like this to me.)

 

[bob.a.feet]

Alaphilippe isn't winning Lombardia, he isn't riding iirc.

Haha yes, CN article posted yesterday said he would be at Lombardia - forgetting that the day before he announced he would be riding Dauphine! I should have been paying more attention

 

[repre]

After Rowe and Thomas's podcast Sivakov would win all races this year!

Looks logical to me. I think I will place bets on the Tour de France place 1 to 3 exactly as you predict and use the betting strategy as described on betting.co.uk.
