GRINZINGER CHAMP's win at Doomben was faster than 81% of everything run at the trip, and 48% of the track
GRINZINGER CHAMP won race 8 at Doomben. What the run was actually worth.
THE BACK PAGE · the run over the result · ACTUAL SPORTS MEDIA
GRINZINGER CHAMP won race 8 at Doomben on Good 4 over 1200m, averaging 17.0 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 81% of everything clocked at this trip and going |
| faster than 91% of Ben Thompson's rides |
| faster than 71% of Jack Bruce's runners |
| faster than 48% of everything clocked at the track |
| started 1 of 7 in the market at $1.8 |
| 1 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.
