I think he will have his best form for RVV but he will not win.

I expect him to attack at least once in Omloop.

Cavendish, you mean? I don't think Cavendish will survive. He already failed many times since '09.

Headwind and better "form" is all it takes. I wouldn't write Cav off just yet.

yep, I think Cav has a shot at it this year. The Holm/Aldag setup will give him another chance. Not a favorite (if thats even possible to have in MSR) of course.

I think Astana will do everything they can to drop the sprinters on la mania (not sure if that's the correct name)

After what we've seen in Omloop, I think he's going to be ready for spring cobbles. Not already for M-SR, but for the cobbles certainly.
But I don't think De Ronde will take a big pre-race favorite like Boonen, Cancellara or Sagan. Someone from the second echelon will take the glory, I'd say.
In Paris - Roubaix should be different, though.

Too much disruption to his pre and early season. He may get close but, no, he won't find his best form for RvV.
