Anyone else looking at the course characteristics in the software as a filter? I am thinking that it is probably more reliable than course filters as there is a much bigger dataset
I think this is a good idea in combination with pace and going. "Galloping" tracks suit longer striding horses that like to, well, gallop, without turning sharply. Sharp courses suit the more nimble horses. "Stiff" courses can knacker the horse out due to the rises, especially when the going is soft.
Glad you agree there. It makes a different in a fair few strategies. Nice datasets as well.

Hi Jon I've just started following your back maiden favs strategy, I've noticed last night and this morning that in the 1.00 and 1.35 at Nottingham two different selections were posted, posted posiedon Prince, yesterday , and tephi this morning and the same in the 1.35 , also there's a 20/1 outsider in the 2.00 at bellewstown, can you tell me how to play these do I go with the last named selections or just back the unnamed fav in the the advised races. Many thanks.

@jonathan-jones Thanks Jonathan

@ian-wylie Will be Wine i think. I dont get anything like that on windows. Did have a few issues with fairbot but most resolved after swapping to the streaming api. I have never seen freezing or anything like that.

Was too short. Looks like it did nothing

A day like yesterday would be nice.

Nothing hit the odds range yesterday. Shame as they both would have traded well.

Hi guys,
Was wondering if anyone has come across this situation. I was doing some in play on a race today using Fairbot and thought I had a small profit as per the screenshot from Fiarbot below as Super Chief won the race.
However when I looked at the Betfair web page I saw the following:
The screenshots were taken within a few seconds of each other.
I have noticed a few issues before with Fairbot where it will freeze for a few seconds and then catch up but didn't notice anything like that during this race. Has anyone else come across similar issues?
I've been watching a number of the video's on Alistair Hamilton's YouTube page and he mentioned on one of them that he was having issues with Fairbot freezing now and again. Like him I'm running Fairbot on Linux via Wine so not sure if it's a Fairbot issue or something to do with the Wine implementation.
Cheers,
Ian -

@martin been doing a similar trade last start beaten faves on a freshen up(45+days since raced)
I want to start looking into last start beaten faves dropping in distance that have raced within 30days of last start(maybe 21 days but selections would be very small i think). I think there may be an edge on that strategy. Its a common rule not the back a beaten fave dropping back in distance
