Win rate and top-3 rate will show once this horse has raced.
The colt is trained by Aidan O'Brien at Cashel in County Tipperary, one of the most successful yards in British and Irish racing. O'Brien's operation has already sent out 125 winners this season, which gives you a sense of the scale and quality of what he runs on a daily basis. A debut runner from that yard carries real expectation — not because the horse is necessarily gifted, but because O'Brien does not waste time or ammunition. If he thinks Heart Of Fire is ready to run, there is usually a reason. Still, a debut is a debut. Even the best young horses can surprise you, either pleasantly or otherwise. The real story will begin the moment the gates open.
