About

Dawn Dancer, a 2yo chestnut gelding from Australia, is trained by Ryan Hill in Keysbrook. He is by the stallion Headwater out of the mare Sunrise Dancer. To date he has captured two victories, the most notable being the $80,000 2yo Plate at Belmont on 11 July 2026. Punters have found him profitable; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 233% return on investment.
