'does he' is the definition.
'Omar' can be an answer for 'he'. I'm unsure of the 'does' bit.

'right to a woman's heart?' is the wordplay.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'to a' means one lot of letters go next to another (I've seen this in other clues).
'heart?' says to take the centre (I've seen 'heart' mean this).
The middle letters of 'woman' are 'oma'.
'r' after 'oma' is 'OMAR'.

'go' is the link.
