Pundit pick: Caturra Lights

Caturra Lights is our selection at Hamilton, rated the pick of these four on our figures with a clear margin over the chasing pack. Call Nicki, Tango Hotel and Or Another all have claims and cannot be ruled out, but none matches the selection's rating advantage. With medium confidence in the form gap holding up, Caturra Lights gets the vote as the best of this quartet.
