Donncha is quick but in both Indypac and tabr last year he went off quick, blew up and had to pack. If he's got his pacing right this year he has a good chance but his past form suggests a risk that he might not last the distance.
I expected Matthijs Ligt to be near the front as he is also quick and has been training hard for this, but he has slipped back a bit. Early days yet, though.
Hippy and Darren are both big guys so they are bound to slip back a bit on the big climbs. If @hippy still has his mojo, a powerful long distance TTer like him should be able to rip through the field after passing the top, as long as they're not too far away by then!
