Hi All

Is there a way to automatically import prices for all races for a particular event in advance to the race coming up.

Basically, we have prices we have assessed at, and want to back / lay at these prices.

Understand you can do closer to the jump via guardian, excel spreadsheet integration etc but is there a way to do well in advance to the jump, and then slowly feed more $$$ through into the market over time closer to the jump.

Would likely to do automatically as won’t be in and around the screens.

If someone is actively doing this already would appreciate if someone could please reach out via DM to discuss.

Cheers

You could probably help if you describe the problem better: What are you hoping to do that guardian and excel cant do?

If you create a CSV file in the same format that BA uses for importing SVs (you could use your preferred programming language to do it if you're a coder), have a back and lay SV for each runner and simply create a rules file to import the SVs back and lay the field if the desired price is reached. It would be a lot of work but it would be necessary because you'll have a specific price for each horse.
