LUNAR EIGHT won race 1 at Springsure. What the run was actually worth.
THE BACK PAGE · the run over the result · ACTUAL SPORTS MEDIA
LUNAR EIGHT won race 1 at Springsure on Soft over 1000m, averaging 17.51 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 91% of its own clocked runs |
| faster than 96% of everything clocked at this trip and going |
| faster than 84% of Ms Gabrielle Semmens's rides |
| faster than 95% of Wayne Baker's runners |
| faster than 96% of everything clocked at the track |
| started 2 of 6 in the market at $2.8 |
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.
