Quite a competitive way to end the card at Dunstall park and the consistent Czar Wars, who has been somewhat rejuvenated this term, is just selected to round off the evening with another pay day for his connections. Rafters Music has a little to prove at the weights so Brioso and Gilded Cove are taken to scrap it out for the minors. However, Czar Wars, who has won off a mark as high as 73 in the past, is a tough old campaigner who should be a touch too wily for these this evening and can make his current rating of 64 look to be very lenient indeed if he runs his usual race.
