PUGLIA won race 5 at Bendigo on Soft 6 over 1400m, averaging 16.4 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 67% of its own clocked runs |
| faster than 92% of the field it beat |
| faster than 65% of everything clocked at this trip and going |
| faster than 49% of Ms Holly Durnan's rides |
| faster than 88% of Archie Alexander's runners |
| faster than 40% of everything clocked at the track |
| started 8 of 12 in the market at $18.0 |
| 1 of 2 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.
