The issue with attempting to make a judgment of this nature is the isolation of one single run and in racing, leaving aside early 2yo/3yo races, this is not normally the case. There are many factors to take into consideration such as distance, runs this preparation, going, pace, jockey etc, etc, and as this poser has been set you might as well ask how long is a piece of string.
