THIRD BASE won race 3 at Newcastle. What the run was actually worth.
THE BACK PAGE · the run over the result · ACTUAL SPORTS MEDIA
THIRD BASE won race 3 at Newcastle on Good 4 over 900m, averaging 17.58 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 94% of everything clocked at this trip and going |
| faster than 99% of Ms Siena Grima's rides |
| faster than 93% of Stephen Gleeson's runners |
| faster than 99% of everything clocked at the track |
| started 3 of 7 in the market at $5.0 |
| 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.
