Yes, but they failed
And Astana hasn't even got a Top 5 yet. They've won 0 bet points for me, also.

You can still bet, but you do have a disadvantage to the participants with a team. As soon as the preview for stage 5 is up, the odds are on and in your case you get 22 (18 in the begin + 1 per stage)

Stage 5
Description
Stage 5 is called flat. Usually, that means the sprinters are the favorites. However, this stage is different. The 2 categorized climbs are quite early, but in the end, we will climb to the city of Matera, known for the Sassi caves. The punchy sprinter or break could do well here, but maybe a GC contender wants to surprise the rest.
The favorites
****John Degenkolb
***Matthew Goss, Philippe Gilbert
**Oscar Gatto, Fabian Cancellara, Jose Joaquin Rojas
*Filippo Pozzato, Simon Geschke, Daniele Ratto, Tony Gallopin
The odds
John Degenkolb 2.10
Matthew Goss 2.55
Philippe Gilbert 2.80
Oscar Gatto 3.35
Fabian Cancellara 3.80
Jose Joaquin Rojas 4.50
Filippo Pozzato 5.75
Simon Geschke 8.00
Daniele Ratto 12.25
Tony Gallopin 15.00
Another rider 2.35
Deadline 17th may 0:00GMT+1

I'm hopeful Degenkolb wins, but I don't feel like betting neither on him nor against him, as I might jinx it

@Ian Butler: What have you got to lose (except all your honor on this forum)?
@cio93: Just bet and give him a boost
@TheManxMissile: Really?

Noooooo. Scarponi so close. But that makes me confident for the Mountain top finishes. |

Cosenza - Matera
Today we have a shorter stage, but probably not less exciting. The sprinters might await their chances, but whether they make it is unsure. We join you with 84 kms left.
4 riders broke from the pack today: Bongiorno (Bardiani), Kessiakoff (Astana), Favilli (Lampre) and Ochoa (Androni). Their lead is 5min23 at the moment
Thanks to the pack, they only got 5min37. The pack is lead by Omega Pharma, Lotto and Orica-GreenEdge.
At the top of the Spezzano Albanese (cat.3) Kessiakoff beat Favilli.
At the first intermediate sprint, just a bit later, Ochoa won uncontested, 2nd was Kessiakoff.
No battle at sprint 2 either. Kessiakoff 1st, Ochoa 2nd.
After sprint 2, BMC starts making the pace for maglia rosa Gilbert.
On the top of the Montescaglioso (20kms from the line), Kessiakoff beats Favilli, who dropped the other 2. Their lead is still 1min48.
Just after the top of the Montescaglioso, Gesink and Hesjedal attack and quickly set a gap.
The attack does not last long.
Kessiakoff and Favilli are reeled in 8kms from the line.
5kms from the line: Weening gets a small gap!
4kms from the line: Weening reeled in. He now forms the lead-out for Goss.
Final kilometer: The sprinters launch their sprints.
At the line
Degenkolb takes victory ahead of Goss and Bennati. Degenkolb takes the red as a bonus, while the blue is for Kessiakoff.

But, but, but, where's Guardini in the odds? 79 SP(but poor on the hills, which don't exist at the stage), no?
