You'd need to store a value on each selection with an entered amount ie,
Row 1 Store a value named 'count' = 1
Row 2 Store a value named 'count' = 2
and so on

Then add a 'Update Custom Rankings of Selections' and rank by
Stored value name 'count'
In Descending Order

You'll then be able to apply your back/lay rule to
By Rank; in Custom Ranking 1
1

Hi Dallas,
On thinking about this i cant see how this will relate to the stall number.
As no 13 for example may have stall 8, no 12 stall 6 etc
Also when i store the values do i do i store the values under 1 rule as per pic?

Do i also need to add "Number of Selections as a SV rule"
Appreciate your help so much sorry if i am not getting it but im sure i will get there?
Yes this is for Australian racing and i know we have different rules to you guys.

It wouldn't be possible to do on UK races as saddle numbers, BF row numbers and stall draws don't correlate in any way
But for Aus racing they all match each race just like Greyhounds

So if there's 15 runners the 15th will be in stall 15, 7 runners the 7th will be in stall 7 and so on

So the steps above check the number of runners and sort them in descending order, so in a 15 runner race the 15th runner in stall 15 will be rank 1, or in a 7 runner race the 7th runner in stall 7 would be rank 1

and your back/lay rule will always be triggering on rank 1

Hi Dallas,
Thanks for trying but in Australian racing the saddlecloth number does not match the stall number see screenshot
Screenshot (530).png
So it is correct i dont believe we can do it on Australian racing?

The saddle cloth number isn't used, its only the BF row number and stall draw

Actually no you are right, I've been getting the stall draw and saddle cloth numbers the wrong way around in my head.

Let me have a think over night and when I've got BA open in the morning i'll double check all the SV's again, in case there's another way which I've previously missed

Thanks so much dallas,
I tried all day using excel but couldnt get the commands correct.
I know it can be done in excel by getting stall id into excel and then doing a max value etc but i failed at the last hurdle with commands.

Even I fell foul of the classic case of overthinking this one, when I sat down and looked again this morning there's a very simple way of doing this, so scrap everything so far and do the following

Place back (or lay) bet rule
applied to ANY selection
Trigger 1 time

Conditions
Number of place bet triggers on market is = 0
Stall Draw of Selection is equal to 25

Duplicate that rule and for the next rule use;


Place back (or lay) bet rule
applied to ANY selection
Trigger 1 time

Conditions
Number of place bet triggers on market is = 0
Stall Draw of Selection is equal to 24

Duplicate that and carry on reducing the stall draw condition


It's important that you start with the highest possible stall draw you may need and work your way down to the lowest you want and keep the rules in that order.

What will happen is the rules will be checked in turn until the first one triggers, and that will be on the highest stall number in that race, the place bet triggers condition will ensure that once a rule has triggered none of the others will be able to fire

Give that a go and let me know if that's done what you want

Hi Dallas,
The bot is working 98% of the time although sometimes will throw in a curve ball.
I thought i was going crazy.
Yesterday Australian racing was supposed to be barrier 20 Incentivise the winner but instead it went for barrier 19.
Ive checked my bot and cannot understand why.

Something in a similar vein.

If I want to count the Number of Selections in a Market that have an LTP <20 at 1 minute before Event Start Time how would I go about doing that.

Just add a 'Fixed Odds Condition'
