Lips Freedom
Lips Freedom is a 6-year-old that has found its niche at distance. But the picture becomes more interesting when you look at where those victories have come. Over two miles and beyond, Lips Freedom has won 2 of 9 races, a win rate of roughly 1 in 4. That is a meaningful edge. In shorter races, the horse has managed nothing from five attempts, which suggests that stamina is where Lips Freedom makes its case.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The most recent win came three months ago at Killarney on 16 July, and since then the form has been mixed. In the last six races, Lips Freedom has finished first or second twice — including a win just over a month ago — but has also had three runs outside the placings. That pattern of inconsistency is typical of a horse still searching for its level, though the fact that it remains competitive enough to run in the winners' circle occasionally suggests Andrew Kinirons' yard has found races where this horse can compete.
Kinirons, training from Newbridge in County Kildare, has built a modest profile this season with six winners overall. Lips Freedom represents the kind of horse that makes sense for a yard like his — one that performs a particular job well enough to earn its keep, even if it will never be a star. For a horse raced over distance on Irish tracks, that is a respectable position. Lips Freedom was last out just a day ago and remains an active runner, so the yard clearly believes there are more opportunities ahead.
