GALLOP card — Bonnie Bouquet, the shape of the win at Rockhampton
Bonnie Bouquet · Rockhampton R1 · the official GALLOP race profile
The run, measured against
faster than 50% of its own clocked runs
faster than 87% of everything clocked at this trip and going
faster than 67% of Ms Steph Tierney (a3/50.5kg)'s rides
faster than 77% of Stuart Kendrick's runners
faster than 34% of everything clocked at the track
started 1 of 7 in the market at $1.8
3 of 3 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.
