Finding Race Results

[Ric Testori]

Where do I find the results of a race? Before I place a bet I need to know if my previous bet was a win or lose as this affects my available stake. This is especially true if I can automate my betting procedure, I would need to update my available stake with the profit or loss from previous bets. I have searched the forum and user manual for "results", "winners", "places" etc but with no success. I DID find a result in the Guardian Reports section (P&L), but this would be to slow and also not available for automatic access.

Any ideas or suggestions would be gratetfully received.

As soon as Betfair settles the market you can get the win status for each selection via a stored value rule and your P/L, there are a few examples in the customization area in the Guardian section like this one

Or this one which stores your P/L
viewtopic.php?f=56&t=25455

Once you've got either or both of those you can then use it to trigger later bets on

Or there's some other automation examples in the pre-off racing area that might also be useful

Betdaq's website gives the fastest results I've seen anywhere.
