About

Colophon, a 4yo chestnut gelding from Australia trained by Michael Freedman, is sired by Written Tycoon out of Viennese Star. He has recorded four career victories. On 25 Oct 2025 at Doomben he captured his biggest triumph, winning the $75,000 Nmw Handicap. He has been a profitable runner for bettors, delivering roughly a 30% return on investment for those who backed him from the start.
