Naked fractions don't mean anything when the speed of the surface isn't accounted for.

Here's a video of Life At Ten and Unrivelled Belle in a Grade 1 route race - going fractions of 45.55 and 1:08.40 set by Life At Ten after she stumbled at the start.

On my figures - Life At Ten went a faster pace today than she did in that race where she set the 1:08.40 after stumbling
