Since there is a poor amount of sprint stages I won't make a sprinter's table. The ciclamino will probably be a classic riders' or climbers' thing. Though here is a previous jersey table:
General classement:
***** Dodo Erdemann
*** Ange Girard, Erwin Schrödinger
* Andrew Stockdale, Omar Fahrny, Luigi Mastrangelo
Provisional analysis says Erdemann with extremely strong team in the mountains and will be also strong in the time trials. He is probably the one to beat. On the otherside we have Girard that has similar skills but is less strong, and then of course Schrödinger who is absolutely impossible to predict. He may win time on many stages and lose only little in the mountains and time trials. Then we have outsiders like Stockdale or Fahrny, both with a second climber, ergo podest is possible. Mastrangelo completes my list of outsiders so far.
Points' classement:
***** Erwin Schrödinger
*** Tom van Amstel, Goran Pandev, Vitali Volosjuk
* Many options
The points' classement is probably the mostly decided so far. Schrödinger can win classic aswell as mountain stages (if not too steep), so he will get several chances to end in the Top 3 and earn plenty of points. Pandev and van Amstel are the best allrounders, so I put them in to compete against Schrödinger. I also think the climbers have a chance, e.g. Mastrangelo or similar riders. Let's see!
Climbers' classement:
***** Dodo Erdemann, Luigi Mastrangelo
*** Erwin Schrödinger, Ange Girard
* The rest
I guess a climber can make it. Only daily breakaway riders might be able to compete.
Young riders' classement:
***** Omar Fahrny
*** Stefan Nipp
* Hugo Truuts
I am pretty sure Fahrny can take it.
