THE BACK PAGE · the run over the result · ACTUAL SPORTS MEDIA
PURPLE ROSE won race 4 at Muswellbrook on Good 4 over 1280m, averaging 17.11 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 88% of the field it beat |
| faster than 79% of everything clocked at this trip and going |
| faster than 90% of Ms Olivia Chambers's rides |
| faster than 88% of Kristen Buchanan's runners |
| faster than 80% of everything clocked at the track |
| started 2 of 8 in the market at $2.4 |
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.
