Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 22, 2018 Journalists Share Posted July 22, 2018 Gary Barber’s War Heroine (f, 3, Lonhro {Aus}-War Tigress, by War Chant), tabbed a ‘TDN Rising Star’ after her debut win over the main track at Del Mar last November, held on to a fast-diminishing neck advantage to earn her first graded victory in the GII San Clemente S. at the oceanside oval Saturday. The 10-1 shot set the pace through fractions of :22.85 and 46.85 with Ms Bad Behavior (Blame) a tracking second. She grimly held off the stretch-long challenge of Ms Bad Behavior and had just enough left to hold off the late-rallying Ollie’s Candy (Candy Ride {Arg}), completing the mile on the turf in 1:34.60. War Heroine, who opened her sophomore campaign with a sixth-place effort in the Jan. 7 GII Santa Ynez S., moved to the lawn to win the Feb. 11 Sweet Life S. down the hill at Santa Anita. Fifth when shipped east and stretched to a mile for the Mar. 3 Busher S., she was making her first start since winning an optional claimer down the hill Apr. 29. The winner was a $37,000 KEESEP yearling. Lifetime Record: 6-4-0-0, $240,945. O-Gary Barber. B-Waymore LLC. T-Peter Miller.
