Strong Euskaltel team for San Remo

Euskaltel will send a strong eight-man team for Saturday`s La Classicissima, the Milano-Sanremo. The team should, at least that`s my view on it, be able to fight for the win. If it comes down to a bunch-sprint, which is probable, Euskaltel will place their faith in Tirreno stage 7 winner Koldo Fernández. Koldo seems to be in awesome form at the moment, so he`s certainly one of the dark-horses for the win on Saturday. The remaining seven riders will also have their chance to shine. Samu Sánchez, Jon Bru, Mikel Astarloza, Beñat Albizuri, Aitor Hernández, Aketza Peña and Unai Etxebarria will probably be in breaks all day long. I can imagine Aitor, Aketza, Beñat and Jon to try to join a break that gets away early, while Samu, Mikel and Unai probably will play their cards in the finale. All riders look strong at the moment, so watch out for Euskaltel on Saturday.
