PANTOJA won race 7 at Bairnsdale on Soft 5 over 1200m, averaging 16.33 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 11% of its own clocked runs |
| faster than 89% of the field it beat |
| faster than 36% of everything clocked at this trip and going |
| faster than 66% of Ms Sam Kennedy's rides |
| faster than 49% of Logan McGill's runners |
| faster than 51% of everything clocked at the track |
| 1 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.
