AZEOLA won race 8 at Wangaratta on Soft 7 over 2000m, averaging 15.13 m/s. That is the result. The run is what follows — the same performance measured against every population that gives it meaning.
| The run, measured against |
|---|
| faster than 17% of its own clocked runs |
| faster than 92% of the field it beat |
| faster than 8% of everything clocked at this trip and going |
| faster than 2% of Ms Alice Kennedy's rides |
| faster than 9% of Ben Brisbourne's runners |
| faster than 3% of everything clocked at the track |
| started 10 of 12 in the market at $20.0 |
| 0 of 2 experts were on it |
Read down that list and the win either grows or shrinks. That is the whole point: the race says where they finished, the clock says how fast they actually went, and only one of those two survives contact with the next start.
