Landed the odds with the minimum of fuss on the AW here in March (1m). 16/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good) 57 days ago. Visor needs to sharpen him up.

Really going the right way now, off the mark on the AW before following up in 8-runner handicap at Redcar (10f, firm) 8 days ago, well positioned but always holding on. Will take some stopping.

Forecasts

Hot Dancer (8/15), Meblesh (11/4), Big Sip (6/1)

Verdict

Unlike his 2 rivals, HOT DANCER arrives firmly on the up so this looks an excellent piece of placing by connections. The hat-trick may well be forthcoming at the expense of Big Sip.
