I am very disappointed with the ride in the final eighth from Rajiv Maragh, however I am not sure whether he thought there was anything left in the tank.

After the 47 and change half, I called out that a longshot was going to come bumping along ... and it played out that way.

I am not sure why Castellano has to play the games, he is a brilliant rider and demonstrated it again there. I am the idiot for seeing how the race was going to play but putting myself on the longshot closer with Leparoux riding instead of the one with Castellano on him who understood that his only shot was if pressure was put on Bayern, which was likely to happen, and sit back and make one big run instead of middle moving.

Lanerie, Albarado, Leparoux, Saez, Bridgmohan, Hernandez, these guys are all suckers who have gotten exposed when in a jock room with guys that can really think and ride.
