The Diagnosis
BERKELEY SQUARE won at Ballarat Synthetic — faster than 43% of everything clocked there
BERKELEY SQUARE won at Ballarat Synthetic. What the run was actually worth.
THE BACK PAGE · the run over the result · ACTUAL SPORTS MEDIA
BERKELEY SQUARE won race 1 at Ballarat Synthetic over 1400m, averaging 16.23 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 46% of its own clocked runs |
| faster than 47% of Declan Bates's rides |
| faster than 61% of Dan O'Sullivan's runners |
| faster than 43% of everything clocked at the track |
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.
