BRAIN WAVE won race 4 at Park Gold Coast Poly on Synthetic over 2000m, averaging 16.4 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 89% of the field it beat |
| faster than 53% of Adin Thompson's rides |
| faster than 39% of Maryann Brosnan's runners |
| faster than 28% of everything clocked at the track |
| started 2 of 9 in the market at $3.8 |
| 0 of 1 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.
