I'd replace Cunego with Bettini

I realise that there are a lot of riders that could be added here but have put in Paolo Bettini. Also worth thinking about is that when Jan Raas won a lot of his Amstel Gold races I'm certain is was a less hilly race and also suited a lot of the cobble classics men as well.
Also there seems a hell of a lot of Italian riders in this cat.
Thanks Udoi had forgotten about those and again Sean Kelly 5 wins in these races. |

I left him off as there are so many riders with 2 victories in these races. |

Tafiolmo@...I'm sorry but I would insist on  Claude Criquielion
Watch his placings and victories in the Fleche Wallonne, 3 podiums at LBL, RVV 1 and 2 podiums at Amstel, and very well in Lombardy ...

I think he could've been the greatest of them all.
Such an unfortunate accident 
On the poll: I'm a bit surprised Merckx isn't voted more. 5 times Liège, 2 times Lombardy (could've been much more but at the end of the season and he went for every single race so fatigue), 3 times Flèche Wallonne, 2 times Amstel and 7 times Sanremo (nope, not a lot in the sprint  ) |

Paolo Bettini was on there yesterday, so not sure what happened but will add him again. |
