A Solo Slipper For Freedman
The Straits Times
|March 23, 2025
Marhoona wins world's richest 2YO race for famous family's 6th, but Michael's first, alone
The Freedman name was etched on the Golden Slipper honour roll for the sixth time on March 22, but to Michael, the youngest brother of the famous Australian racing family, Marhoona was his very first winner of the world's richest 2YO race as a trainer in his own right.
The 56-year-old, who was among Kranji's leading trainers for nine years (2008 to 2016), was lost for words at the Rosehill Gardens winner's enclosure as he took in the enormity of the occasion.
While the FBI (Freedman Brothers Incorporated as they were known in the 90s) four-year blitz between 1993 and 1996 with Bint Marscay, Danzero, Flying Spur and Merlene as well as Stay Inside (2021) in partnership with Richard were all proud moments, going solo just had another appeal.
