War Correspondent heads this nine-runner field at Killarney on good ground over seventeen furlongs, rated narrowly ahead of Stuntman Steve and a few pounds clear of Femme Magnifique and Costacurta, who are locked together as the next dangers in line. Stuntman Steve will press hardest given the slender gap, while Femme Magnifique and Costacurta cannot be dismissed at the same level as each other, though War Correspondent's edge in class should prove decisive over this stamina-testing trip. The selection is War Correspondent.
