Had the perfect one last night....adding a link here so you can watch the race unfold.
Three horses were layed at 1.76 (they subsequently finished 2nd, 3rd and 4th in the race) and the winner (which went of at a BSP of about 300!) won by a short head and came so late and so fast it never triggered what would have been the losing lay.
+2.50 win!!!

I make it the 19:28 today as earliest possible with the rest to keep an eye on.

8.26 at Tampa Tonight for LTF
Pretty much scratch @ 2.02
You need to be sub 2.0 for this to make any money.
Yup. I get that but, just purely following @Alan-Steward's table right now he's had one outright loss from 12 races. I'm following the stats........for now.
Converted that one at 1.76 for a +0.25pt win. You haven't a prayer of winning anything at even money.
Thus far am 9/12 on these, all but one of the winners only 2 horses went below 1.76 and am up a point. If it carries on like this will be quite happy scratting around until the real stuff comes back

Doesn't help with inplay prices but I've just noticed the betfair app stores BSP prices for prev races in the meet same day.

@richard-latimer Makes up for the greyhound disaster I had earlier lol. Strictly auto on greyhounds now! Don't forget Martin pointed out earlier about the 20.26 at Tampa Bay fits the criteria for ltf

The timeform table can work sometimes if you look at the outsiders. I noticed there were a number of horses not racing and the third tip (second was one of the absentees) was odds of 42.0 backed it and just let it run ( only £2) and it won lovely. Then tried again at the 18.52 and the outside timeform tip this also at 42.0 coincidently put up a good fight and went under 3.0 traded out.
Sweet. That's a lot of green right there haha!

Got greyhounds aswell apparantly
Cheers Dan very useful when looking to lay a trap number, I have been using greyhound-data for the percentage chance of the trap number wins with distance at each course. This now helps with deciding what price range I should be looking at. Just had a quick look and it appears between 3.0 and 5.0 looks good price to base on , below that it appears to low and work above you are relying on such a high strike rate.

I wonder if there's some sort of angle to take advantage of these ridiculous 1 &2 races!? There must be something surely. Trouble is I can't find a damn thing about them on the interweb. Maybe the dark web haha!
Richard...they are actually quite fun to watch. Those quarter horses can't half shift over a short distance. Of course there is nothing in play (just like the dogs) but you could mess around with backing steamers or laying drifters before the off maybe.

@adamwilliams
Is there anyway using the link I posted below we can pull the data we need for our laythefield research we are trying
Cheers
Dan
If you search back a week or two you'll find a couple of posts where I uploaded an Excel file with a sample of the data...this will give you an idea of what you could do with it.
