Freedman brothers set for rare family showdown at Rosehill

The famous Freedman name will be front and centre at Rosehill on Saturday, with brothers Michael, Richard and Anthony all represented in the Bisley Workwear Handicap (1100m).

The two-year-old event has ten acceptors, with the Freedman-trained runners wearing saddlecloths one, two and three.

Michael Freedman saddles Outspan, a Bivouac colt who finished strongly behind Magic Millions 2yo Classic contender Knightsbridge.

Richard Freedman, training with son Will, will debut Written In Munny, a Written Tycoon colt who impressed in a recent trial.

Anthony Freedman, alongside son Sam, runs a Pinatubo colt out of Calliope, a half-brother to star filly Tempted.

Written In Munny cost $360,000 as a yearling and comes from American listed winner Always In The Munny.

“We’ve all had a runner in the same race before, but I don’t think it’s happened with first starters,” Freedman said.

With rain forecast, conditions will be monitored closely.

“I think the weather will play a part on whether that actually takes place,” Freedman said.

“He’s a nice horse. He’s fast, he’s got speed.”

Thyme To Go is the favourite after finishing second to Knightsbridge on debut.
