Underdog vs. Dasher

Now I know that Destiny Hero - Dasher will still allow the special summon of a card drawn by Heart of the Underdog's effect, I see that all well and clear in the official rulings and such, what I don't know though....

Does choosing to do that special summon, well, break the Underdog's "stride", or would there be no timing issue to this at all?
You show, say, your Sabersaurus for Underdog and chose not to use Dasher, so you draw again, then you show your mighty Frostosaurus for Heart of the Underdog's effect as Chain Link 1, then use Dasher's effect as Chain Link 2, resolve and special summon it to the field, and then draw again... or do you only get to use one of the two effects?

Geez, I feel like I was channeling Tyranno Hassleberry there for a minute or something, Sarge.
 
Well, since you can chain two Dashers together (so you should be able to chain Heart to Dasher, or vise versa).....and since the timing for both are the same....the only problem I could foresee is if for some oddball reason, Konami decides that showing the card to your opponent is a cost. Barring that, you should be good to go!!
 
Both effects are Optional Triggers that will form a SEGOC chain when triggered. You, as the Turn Player can decide which order to place them in.

This does not mess with "Heart of the Underdog's" ability to allow you to draw one more card; however, depending on the order in which you place these two effects, that one card could be the last you draw with "Heart of the Underdog" for that turn....lol.
 
Both effects are optional Trigger Effects. So if you choose to activate both of them, then you can decide which effect will be Chain Link 1 and which one will be Chain Link 2.

If you choose to activate the effect of HotU as Chain Link 1 and the effect of Dasher as Chain Link 2, then the effect of HotU will be the last thing to resolve, and if you draw into another Normal Monster in this case, then you'll be able to activate the effect of HotU again, starting a new chain.

If you choose to activate the effect of Dasher as Chain Link 1 and the effect of HotU as Chain Link 2, then the effect of Dasher will be the last thing to resolve, and both players will be able to respond to the summon.
 
*does the whole Mr. Burns tapping of the fingers together* EXXXXXXXXXCELLENT.

Yeah, being an old school Underdog and knowing all about the timing thing, I just wanted to make sure on this, could even make a pretty nasty way to get around a Bottomless Trap Hole or other things perhaps. *evil shifty eyes*
