Pundit pick: Tuckmill

Tuckmill heads our ratings at 105, five pounds clear of King Of The Greys on 100, and that is a meaningful edge in an 18-runner contest over 20 furlongs on good ground. With so many runners and a test of stamina ahead, the strongest rating in the field gives us the most solid base to work from. King Of The Greys is the chief danger, with No Big Deal and You Done Well both on 98 and capable of making the frame if the principal is not at his best. Tuckmill looks the one to beat, and he is our selection.
