About
Hero Of War is a 4yo bay mare from Australia trained by Barbara Kennedy at Byerley Park. Her sire is the stallion Nicconi and her dam is Assertive Eagle. To date, she has secured a single victory in her racing career. Her most notable triumph came on 7 May 2025 at Ellerslie, where she captured the $25000.00 2yo+ Maiden Set Weight With Allowances. The mare has proven lucrative for bettors throughout her campaign, and backing her from the start would have yielded a 635% return on investment.
