Average traded volume per course

[tar1234]

Is there any data out there for newbies such as myself that shows the average traded volume for different UK racecourses?

I have a general idea about what courses would be classed as lower and higher tier in terms of quality/volume but there's a lot in between that I'm unsure about!

You are probably better off looking at race types rather than courses, but you can get both sets of data from the Betfair SP files

There's a tool here which will download them in batches, have a look towards the end of the thread as I think the original file has been updated to point a the latest directory

Aye ODPaul82 did a replaced version and I added a couple of bits to it as the original file Nigelk did wasn't working for me (and some others I know). I use it daily now and it works a treat.

If at any point it needs tweaking ping me a PM on here as I don't log on all the time but will receive the PM notification in my email

just an estimate of expected( average) volume to be matched/ race . looking back at similar event in the past , right?
you would think such data is easily available. think again...excel it or screen record it or buy a betfair data package.

Couple of options, maybe?

a) Power Query or b) Python...both on this thread

Caveat: I've not used this version for a long time but it should still work.

wetransfer link for a CSV of aggregates taken from my DB from 2018 up until last time I loaded data in.
Would full expect some selections to be missing

Not cleaning up the data but you can use the split function or LEFT, MID & RIGHTS to remove any bits you dont need
