Dancer maybe receiving marks - wanting third judge's conclusion to be prompt (8)
I believe the answer is:
reminder
'be prompt' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for reminder that I've seen before include "note" , "Prompt, memory jog" , "Nudge" , "Memory jogger" , "Hint, suggestion" .)
