MEET ME HALFWAY won race 5 at Murtoa. What the run was actually worth.
THE BACK PAGE · the run over the result · ACTUAL SPORTS MEDIA
MEET ME HALFWAY won race 5 at Murtoa on Heavy 8 over 1100m, averaging 16.23 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 63% of everything clocked at this trip and going |
| faster than 41% of Harry Coffey's rides |
| faster than 32% of Ben, Will & JD Hayes's runners |
| faster than 68% of everything clocked at the track |
| started 2 of 5 in the market at $3.1 |
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.
