Will Dani Rowe have the legs to battle it out with the sprinters in the race for the line?
I'm not sure with former world champion Amalie Dideriksen and Kirsten Wild having had quieter mornings, using less energy, in the comfort of the peloton.
Boels-Dolmans are on the front of the peloton, racing at just under 35km/h as they try to set up Dideriksen for the stage win.The Danish rider won the world title in 2016, when she was just 20 years old.
Wiggle High5's Wild is among the fastest sprinters and if she gets a decent look at the finish line, she will take some beating.
The lead has gone out to 100 seconds, which is why Boels-Dolmas are upping the pace. As a basic rule, it takes 10km to erase a one minute lead on flat roads, so plenty of time left with 37km to go.
