INTEREST POINT won at Sandown Hillside on one of its slower days — 0% of its own runs, and 78% of the track
INTEREST POINT won race 2 at Sandown Hillside. What the run was actually worth.
THE BACK PAGE · the run over the result · ACTUAL SPORTS MEDIA
INTEREST POINT won race 2 at Sandown Hillside over 800m, averaging 16.78 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 0% of its own clocked runs |
| faster than 81% of Daniel Stackhouse's rides |
| faster than 75% of Matt Laurie's runners |
| faster than 78% of everything clocked at the track |
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.
