Trainer Mark Mason has been eyeing a metropolitan assignment for his stable star and settled for the $40,000 Davali Thoroughbreds Benchmark 76 Handicap (1000m).
Hot Hit has not been to the races since his simply brilliant success in the Walcha Lightning on February 10.
That day the son of Dubleo oozed class as he lumped 62.5kg and overhauled a capable bush speedster in Don’t Tease Me late.
Mason has booked Hugh Bowman, fresh off a group 1 double at The Championships on the weekend to partner Hot Hit.
Despite his brilliant record in the bush, Hot Hit has a metropolitan rating of 72, 13 points under his country mark.
Warwick Farm’s most recent track rating was a Heavy 9, with grey skies forecast.
The race is run at 3.15pm.
TAB Fixed Odds markets had Hot Hit on the second line of betting at $5.50.
