The Record
I'm Fiery appears in the surviving Plainridge programs across the 2003 season, with 4 starts for which the official chart records a finishing position. None of those starts produced a win in the charts held here, though the horse reached the frame on 1 occasion.
The fastest mile recorded here is 2:00.0, set on Tuesday, November 18, 2003. A harness time is written in minutes, seconds and fifths, so the final digit is a fifth of a second rather than a hundredth. On a five-eighths-mile oval like Plainridge a horse turns four times in a mile, which costs ground against the bigger tracks and makes reading one mile against another misleading.
The classes I'm Fiery was entered in run to FMNW200PS, FMNW250PS, 3000CL OP. These are condition races rather than claiming events, so eligibility rested on money already won rather than on a posted purchase price.
The drivers who sat behind I'm Fiery most often were Peter A Sarnie (2), John Hogan (2). Driver changes matter more in harness racing than the bare numbers suggest, because the same horse can be driven for early speed or held for a late quarter depending on who holds the lines.

Questions about this horse
Which drivers sat behind I'm Fiery?

Was I'm Fiery a trotter or a pacer?
A pacer — every charted start is at the pace. A pacer moves its legs in lateral pairs, a trotter in diagonal pairs, and a horse is normally campaigned at one gait or the other.
What class did I'm Fiery race in?
FMNW200PS, FMNW250PS and 3000CL OP. Each code is a set of eligibility conditions rather than a grade — the class pages explain what each one admitted.
What were the odds on I'm Fiery?
The shortest price in the recovered charts is 1.60 to one. Odds are the closing figures printed on the chart, so they reflect what the pool decided at the off, not a forecast.
How many times did I'm Fiery race at Plainridge?
The record shows 4 charted starts for I'm Fiery, 2003. The name appears on 9 race days in all once entry sheets are counted, because a horse can be drawn into a race and then scratched before it is run. That is what the programmes and result sheets hold, not necessarily the horse's full career: starts made at other tracks are outside this record.
What is I'm Fiery's win record at Plainridge?
Not in the charts recovered here. I'm Fiery shows 4 starts without a win, though there was 1 placing — 1 second and 0 third — in the first three.
What was I'm Fiery's fastest mile?
2:00.0, on 2003-11-18. Harness times are read as minutes, seconds and fifths, so 2:00.0 is 2 minutes and the rest in seconds — the final fifth is the digit after the last point.
