What a total shambles! 50% of the field never ran and one jockey was off in running.

I was praying the favourite would go in. Really they should have taken them all out and started again, at one point it looked like the entire field was playing up

I presume XM was not in operation in that market as I had lots of bets in running on the other runners that normally would have been XMed against the favourite.

However my P&L was not adjusted between the end of the race and after the non runners were removed from the market.

Does that make sense?

I recorded this race as it went in running but missed the few seconds. During those few seconds there were very strange patterns (very gappy for want of a better phrase!).
I deleted the video as it didn't capture what I wanted but I would have though there may have been some irregular SP's??

One strage thing was that although the market was suspened and reopened at the correct time, about 2 or 3 seconds before the suspension (and the start of the race) it all thinned out and the second favourite got smashed down. It was behaving almost as if it had gone in play already, with the second favourite being hammered as if the race had started and the favourite didnt run.

If it was due to stupid people I know what they were doing.

If it was due to clever people I don't know what they were doing.
