Hi,

I have 6 stored values, one for each selection, that update at the end of each race with a numerical value.

I would like to Update Custom Ranking of Selections with these stored values but I can't figure out how to do it as Bet Angel is expecting the name of a stored value where as I have 6 and I can only enter one of them.

For clarification. all six stored values do the same thing but each is assigned to a specific selection like SV1 to Betfair row 1, SV2 to Betfair row 2 etc.

In my mind, the solution would be to group all six stored values under one name and use that to Update Custom Ranking of Selections but I can't see how.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

TIA

Why can't the SV be the same for every selection but set at selection level?

That was the first thing that came to mind. However, since the selections are greyhounds and the stored values refer to the trap numbers rather than the favorite or Betfair order number for example, I couldn.t see how to achieve that.

I tried setting a stored value for each of the traps with the same name using the number before the name of the greyhound as a Text Comparison parameter for the trap but the rule wouldn't' even trigger (although it is possible I did something wrong)

In my head seems so simple yet in practice is proving a lot more difficult than anticipated :lol:

There is a saddle cloth option under store a value as text.

That seems to have done the trick. Thanks for your help! :)
