Original Toronto Star caption: The one to watch: Le Danseur; favorite to win the Queen's Plate at Woodbine on Sunday; was paraded in the show ring at the racecourse yesterday. Le Danseur appeared with a protuberance on his right leg; but he breezed through three-eighths-of-a-mile with no problem and looked really sharp. The horse is guarded around the clock by exercise rider Yvon Lapointe and groom Rick Patywich.
