Greyhound Mystique

[MemphisFlash]

Once i've tested it on some horse races i'll put it on here

[MemphisFlash]

Here is a little sheet that shows the Weight of Money for 9 selections, so it can be used on Australian and english greyhounds, as well as any Horse racing.

I have been demonstrating a strategy that this can come in useful for all night long, Obviously not going to give the strategy away but shouldn't be to hard for the smart ones to figure out.

Hope you find it helpful.

This spreadsheet is just the WOM% in a pie chart?

SB Thanks for posting this code. Just run it and it looks good!
(For anyone new to Python, I had to :

PIP Install request
PIP Install requests_html

From terminal to get it running

When i run the Python code i get an error ... Trap= link.find(class_="gh-racing-runner-cloth").get_text()
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_text'

Im a newbie on python .... I looked at the site and it looks like the value isn't a number

is anyone able to help. google couldn't help me

[MemphisFlash]

what is that code and what does it do?

[spreadbetting]

I think it just grabbed the times from the sporting Life site in line with what archery was originally doing with the race times. Maybe they've changed the website layout if it no longer works as it was just scaping the pages and output a runner if it met the criteria.

The code and format etc is posted on page 21 of this thread, haven't run or looked at the code for ages as it wasn't a winner. Just stuck with my old bots for now.

Thanks for the explanation, Ill try to learn a bit more and scrape a different site .... could take me a year or two
