Frank Stronach Purchases Fire On Ice
Frank Stronach has purchased 2-year-old sensation, Fire On Ice. The Unbridled’s Song colt out of the Storm Cat mare Lost In The Storm was arguably the most impressive winner of the 2011 Saratoga meet, winning his debut by 10 ¾ lengths.
John Kimmel, who will remain as trainer said “We’ll go through years and years and years without coming up with a horse who breaks his maiden like that,” said Kimmel. “I would say there is no place to run next other than in the Champagne S. [G1].”
“Fire On Ice is an exciting racehorse with great talent. He has the potential to become a champion racehorse, and with that, earn the right to join the stallion roster at Adena Springs,” said Frank Stronach.
Mike Rogers, Adena Springs’ racing manager, said “Mr. Stronach remains very passionate about racing. The purchase of this colt, along with the select yearlings purchased at Saratoga and Keeneland, underscore Mr. Stronach’s commitment to the industry as well as his desire to maintain and develop his world class stallion roster. We are very optimistic about the future of our program and these additions will complement our exciting group of homebreds already in training.”
