HANG FIVE's win at Richmond was faster than 90% of everything run at the trip, and 88% of the track
HANG FIVE won race 5 at Richmond. What the run was actually worth.
THE BACK PAGE · the run over the result · ACTUAL SPORTS MEDIA
HANG FIVE won race 5 at Richmond on Good over 1400m, averaging 17.47 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 58% of its own clocked runs |
| faster than 90% of everything clocked at this trip and going |
| faster than 92% of Ms Brooke Stower's rides |
| faster than 94% of Tanya Parry's runners |
| faster than 88% of everything clocked at the track |
| started 1 of 5 in the market at $1.5 |
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.
