Hatch is hopeful Roweiner’s Dance will measure up in the Brisbane region but has no fixed plans in mind.
“Billy will be very happy if he can win a race around this area,” Hatch said.
“We just want to see how he handles this race on Saturday and we have no great expectations.
“If he measures up then he could go on to the QTIS Jewel in March.”
As far as his debut assignment in Brisbane is concerned, Hatch will be happy with a top four finish.
“He’s a very harden horse but if there’s a question mark it could be the 1200 metres,” Hatch said.
