American Freedom colt fires bullet at OBS Under Tack Show

A colt from the first crop of American Freedom fired a quarter-mile bullet move of :20 4/5 during Saturday’s Under Tack show for next week’s OBS March Sale of 2-year-olds in Training, which will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday (VIDEO).

Cataloged as hip No. 461 and consigned by Pick View LLC, the bay juvenile will sell on Wednesday. The Kentucky-bred is out of the Divine Park mare Divine Happiness, who has had two foals to race, both winners. Divine Happiness is a half-sister to stakes winner Spring Rush and multiple stakes-placed Sea View Chico. 

Multiple Grade 1-placed American Freedom finished ahead of future Horse of the Year Gun Runner in both the Travers (G1) and Haskell Inv. (G1) and is represented 124 First-Crop 2-year-olds this year. He currently has a total of nine juveniles scheduled to sell at the OBS auction.
