Here is an example of Power Query scraping top rated selections for each race in the UK from https://sharpbetting.co.uk/racecards

To refresh, click any cell inside the Table then go to the 'Data Tab' and click on "Refresh All"

Note: it takes a couple of minutes to refresh so be patient.

Sorry mate only just seen this. Yeah I would of updated it to say I modified it from your original file, but the TTM discord group has been since closed down.

Alot of rumours circling shady goings on with that group, so who knows what's what with them. :?

Tbh I think they just want to funnel everyone into sports-iq and bump up the prices without mass complaint

I provided the link to the website in the post, where one can check the race cards.

One can see every runner has a rating but as noted the tool only gets the top rated, hence only 1 runner per race.

They are relatively new on the scene so not much data behind it, so it's up to oneself to collate the data to see if their ratings are any good 8-)

Not to sound too condescending but did you by any chance click on "connect"?

As the dialogue box states, it's trying to connect to said website but it won't until you select it.

This pop-up usually occurs when one removes/edits permissions which is in the Data Source Settings, not Query Options (as per my advice in the Error thread). Basically if one changes those permissions or removes them it means it needs to re-connect to the website in order to run the query.
