His work permit has now been granted and the STC said horses would be starting in his name from Friday night.

“Trainer Lee Freedman’s employment pass has been approved by the Ministry of Manpower and horses will run under his name starting from this Friday race meeting,” the STC said in a statement.

A five-time Melbourne Cup-winning trainer, Freedman has most recently been training in partnership with his brother Anthony in Melbourne since late 2014.
