Corza's Predict-O-Zone

We love having a prediction or two here at Corza and have even got the odd winner correct on occasions but a whole months worth of spring classics predictions in one go? Why not? Er...We don't know all the start lists yet for one...

La Primavera kicks it all off on Saturday the 20th of March and a new look calender sees Ghent Wevelgem on the following weekend starting three weeks of cobbled racing.

A word of warning though. Whilst we like to think of ourselves as having a fair knowledge of bike racing we really wouldn't recommend phoning up Unibet or William Hill armed with this list of predictions.

Milan - San Remo. Winner: Tom Boonen. In a sprint. He's looked good in Tirreno - Adriatico and looks more fired up than anytime since 2006.

Ghent - Wevelgem. Winner: Edvald Boasson Hagen. Now it may be the case that if Sky can split the Milan San Remo field on the Poggio Boasson Hagen could take the spoils in San Remo, either way Commander Brailsford and crew would love a classics win despite their commendable 'success is not a number of wins' philosophy and at Corza we reckon Ghent Wevelgem could be the one.

Tour of Flanders. Winner: Alesandro Ballan. We may well be revising this after the Three Days of De Panne but after his typically cursed arc-en-ciel year in 2009 Ballan look like he could be back to his best with BMC. If he is Ballan has the motivation, strength and knowledge needed to win De Ronde.

Paris Roubaix. Winner: Thor Husovd. A race that always rewards the wise and strong. Hushovd is both a) wise and b) strong. Now, if he hadn't fallen on the Carrefour de l'Arbre last year...
