Pundit pick: Tommy Cullen

Tommy Cullen heads our figures at Uttoxeter's Class 5 test over two and a half miles on good ground, rated a clear 114 and a healthy 9 lb ahead of the chasing pack, making him the one to beat. Uhtred Ragnarson and Fiskardo are tied on 105 and represent the closest thing to danger, with October Hill (103) also worth respect. With this much daylight to the rest of the field on our own book, Tommy Cullen is a high-confidence selection to confirm that superiority on the day.
