BLACK FROST won race 2 at Wangaratta over 820m, averaging 15.95 m/s. That is the result. The run is what follows — the same performance measured against every population that gives it meaning.

GALLOP card — BLACK FROST, the shape of the win at Wangaratta
BLACK FROST · Wangaratta R2 · the official GALLOP race profile
The run, measured against
faster than 56% of its own clocked runs
faster than 23% of Ms Hannah Edgley's rides
faster than 18% of Craig Weeding's runners
faster than 23% of everything clocked at the track

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.
