MILITARY BASE won race 6 at Pakenham Synthetic on Synthetic over 1600m, averaging 16.56 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 25% of its own clocked runs |
| faster than 91% of the field it beat |
| faster than 98% of everything clocked at this trip and going |
| faster than 62% of Luke Nolen's rides |
| faster than 49% of Peter G Moody & Katherine Coleman's runners |
| faster than 52% of everything clocked at the track |
| started 3 of 11 in the market at $5.5 |
| 0 of 1 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.
