Which qualifiers do we think will make it to Round Two?

I'll be continuing my tradition of the last three years and putting on a silly sixteen-match accumulator. I have a couple of qualifiers in mind, but I want to see if anyone else agrees before I name them.

Sheet!
I went to all that trouble and all I had to say was "All the guys on the left side will win"

Graeme Dott

[spike]

I think Martin Gould has a good chance, plus Tom Ford as well..

[missneworleans]

Mark Davis Liang Holt

[Nugget]

Graeme Dott

You got it! Steve Davis and Graeme Dott were my two. Cope after that and I'd be very surprised if any others got through.

Noel, at first glance I was tempted to go that route but for whatever reason those guys on the left never make it a clean sweep! So I think I'll go with Dott and Davis. Better odds for my ridiculous bet.

[crucible77]

would give Martin Gould a great chance against Marco Fu!

[steedee]

Dotts a definate for me, Cope too. Holty might, we dont know who wenbo's opponent will be yet (genius ronnie or mental ronnie) ken doherty might spring a suprise too.

[Giggity1984]

Steve Davis
Martin Gould
Jamie Cope
Michael Holt

Exactly my choice(s) too!

[hitandhope]

Jamie Cope

Michael Holt - Partly because Joe Perry has not been in form.

They are my definates. Dott could, so could Liang, so could they all really!

[ste bed]

dott, holt, steve davis and jamie cope all have very good chances but there's always some suprises.
