Last time Dar Lunn had a runner in the Newhaven Park Country Championships Final his horse was a $201 chance, when he heads to Randwick with the dashing front-runner Elson Boy he’ll at least be considered a hope of stealing the $1 million race.

Trainer Dar Lunn sees it as something of a coup to secure Tommy Berry to ride one of his duo in Sunday’s Newhaven Park WRA Country Championships (1400m) at Coonamble.

For the extended Lunn family, a racing institution in the Central West, rivalry will be at its height at Sunday’s booming Dubbo TAB meeting where wily veteran Dar Lunn might just have his best yet in quaintly named Pants on Fire.

Celebrated veteran Dar Lunn has a knack with discards and an eye for a bargain so when he makes a rare trip to town with a revived winner at big odds it’s a definite watch.

Two races in three days for the same durable bush galloper!
