HARD QUESTIONS won race 7 at Carnarvon on Good over 1400m, averaging 16.64 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 71% of its own clocked runs |
| faster than 92% of the field it beat |
| faster than 66% of everything clocked at this trip and going |
| faster than 85% of Alex Hearn's rides |
| faster than 67% of everything clocked at the track |
| started 9 of 13 in the market at $21.0 |
| 0 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.
