Regally bred Heaven On Earth gained a valuable first win at Limerick today as the Aidan O'Brien trained filly landed the Irish Stallion Farms EBF (Fillies) Maiden under jockey Michael Hussey.

The daughter of Galileo is a sister to English 1,000 Guineas and English Oaks winner Minding, a seven-time Group 1 winner, and today made it third time lucky when readily beating Lady Olenna

Heaven On Earth's win was trainer O'Brien's second of the day following Japan's win in the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot.
