I’d wager Skipper will podium or be very close.
I think top 3 is within reach. And if Kallin and Marquardt have.... oh crap. Kallin (Edit to correct) just crashed for no reason. Looks like he might have taken out or almost taken out an age grouper who was behind him. Looks like he just got a bit floppy riding out of the saddle and torqued his foot out of the pedal.
I think it's 4 for the podium: Marquardt, Mignon, Lange and Skipper, with the question mark on Hernandez running his first IM (he's wicked fast in 70.3) and I don't think Kallin is going to be a factor, even less after his fall.
Kallin crash totally 'him': no other rider cause.
Agree that looks like the top 4, in your order you gave. Rodriquez has some good 1:09/1:10s early last year but Campeche and Oceanside not promising for a fast full (and first IM). If sensible he runs it in to get a Kona slot (first ?8).
Edit: Superb bike time from Marquardt!
WPro starting to look quite interesting. Langridge is better runner than Wilms. McCauley, Berry, Slater and Alberts pretty even, similar to Wilms.
