Horse racing turnover YoY
Hi Gutaumi
See attached spreadsheet.
When you work out the average volume matched per race in each month, there isn't the clear downward trend over time that you might expect.

I take your point - we may not be comparing like with like.
I think a good category of race to use to study changes in volume is the all-weather tracks, as you have the same tracks and the same quality of racing throughout the year. So if you were to look at how much had been matched per horse in each month at (say) Wolverhamption, focusing on horses with BSPs of between (say) 2 and 2.5, that might give a clearer picture.
