Trained by Patrick Kruyer, Freedom Seeker scored by three-quarters of a length over 1000 metres, her second win from just four starts.

A half-sister to Group I placed Scarlet Dream, Freedom Seeker was bred by Tara Farm and is the fourth winner from South African bred Asylum Seeker (SAF), the Champion 2YO Filly of 2005/2006 and winner of the Group I Greyville Golden Slipper.

Her dam Asylum Seeker has a yearling colt by Zoustar and produced a filly foal last year by Your Song. She is now in foal to Smart Missile.
