Liberation Date
Liberation Date is a 3-year-old with an improving record that suggests a horse beginning to find its level. With two wins and six places from nine races, the horse has won roughly 1 in every 5 races—solid enough form for a young runner still learning the game. What stands out is how recent that second win came: just this week at The Curragh on 16 August, which means Liberation Date is in active form and racing regularly.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The recent form tells a story of consistency. In the last six races, Liberation Date finished first, then sixth, then third, then sat out a race before returning. That third-place finish showed it can stay competitive, and the win this week proved it can still put a run together. The horse broke through on 12 December 2025 at Dundalk and has now added a second victory in the nearly eight months since. For a young horse still developing, this pattern of gradual progress is exactly what trainers hope to see.
Jack Foley's Bagenalstown yard has been modest this season, sending out just four winners. Liberation Date accounts for half of those victories, which speaks to how much the horse matters to the operation. The timing of this week's win—combined with the horse still racing actively—suggests Foley has plans for Liberation Date to keep improving.
