Beleg "Strongboot" Cuthalion is looking the hot favourite so far, and it may stay that way if Doriath qualify from their Group, which looks likely. But he has hot competition from the impressive Peregrine "Pint-size" Took and the surprisingly adept Azog Dwarfheader, not to mention Legolas "Legoals" Greenleaf, Turgon of Gondolin and Aragorn Wingfoot.

Faramir and Turin cannot be discounted but Ugluk, despite his impressive form, is unlikely since Isengard look like they will have difficulty progressing to the next stage.
