Verdict
MILLENNIUM WARRIOR is the recommendation. He has got a win to his name and can reverse last time's placings with Peace Treaty. Force Publique is capable of getting involved while Special Envoy has run just once previously and should have more to offer, and Top Floor should put up plenty of resistance.
