Betfair Historical Horse Race Data/CSV files

[ACDC-Fan]

Hello all,

Are there historical CSV files available on the Betfair website for horse races?

I would like to have a play with Excel and import some horse race data - in particular starting prices etc.

Can anyone point me in the direction of where to get the CSV files from?

Cheers!

It helps to have some code to loop through and download the files for each day

#include <String.au3>
#include <InetConstants.au3>
#include <Inet.au3>

#include <IE.au3>
#include <math.au3>

Local $aURLs[0]

$oIE = _IECreate("https://promo.betfair.com/betfairsp/prices", 0, 1, 1, 0)
$oLinks = _IELinkGetCollection($oIE)



For $oLink In $oLinks
If StringInStr($oLink.href, "dwbfgreyhoundwin") And StringInStr($oLink.href, "2023") Then

_ArrayAdd($aURLs, $oLink.href)
;MsgBox("","", $oLink.href)
EndIf

If StringInStr($oLink.href, "dwbfgreyhoundwin") And StringInStr($oLink.href, "2022") Then

_ArrayAdd($aURLs, $oLink.href)
;MsgBox("","", $oLink.href)
EndIf
Next

_ArrayDisplay($aURLs)

While ProcessExists("iexplore.exe")
ProcessClose("iexplore.exe")
WEnd

For $x = 0 To UBound($aURLs) - 1


;MsgBox("", "", $aURLs[$x])

;_IENavigate($oIE, $aURLs[$x])

$data = _INetGetSource($aURLs[$x])
;MsgBox("","", $data)
$aSplit = StringSplit($aURLs[$x], "/", 2)
;_ArrayDisplay($aSplit)

$OutFileLay = "c:\temp\greys\" & $aSplit[5]
FileDelete($OutFileLay)
FileOpen($OutFileLay)
FileWrite($OutFileLay, $data)
FileClose($OutFileLay)
