About

Merchant Empire is a 4-year-old bay gelding from Australia, trained by R & W Freedman based in Rosehill. He is the offspring of the stallion Merchant Navy and the mare Tomelilla. So far, Merchant Empire has won one race. On January 28, 2024, at Wyong, he was ridden by Ashley Morgan and secured his most notable victory in the $42,000 Ch&G Maiden Set Weight, defeating Edited By. Throughout his career, he has proven to be a profitable investment for bettors, yielding a 320 percent return on investment for those who backed him.
