JUDAS TREE won race 4 at Flemington over 800m, averaging 16.2 m/s. That is the result. The run is what follows — the same performance measured against every population that gives it meaning.

GALLOP card — JUDAS TREE, the shape of the win at Flemington
JUDAS TREE · Flemington R4 · the official GALLOP race profile
The run, measured against
faster than 36% of Jye McNeil's rides
faster than 30% of Tony & Calvin McEvoy's runners
faster than 26% 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.
