Is my setup off or are the Bf live video pictures from Newcastle a bit behind the action??

BFL is about 1.5-2.0 secs behind live for all ARC tracks, and about 0.5 secs behind for all RTV tracks. For comparison drone footage and TPD through Bet Angel is about 0.5 secs behind live.

Thx, I keep forgetting that...

Is there an updated list of which tracks are covered by RTV?

This is the one on the Betfair site, but e.g. Stratford is listed as ATR when it is actually RTV:

Occasionally a course might switch allegiance, so lists can become obselete.

This article from Peter is the most recent that I've seen, although I think Fakenham has since switched from ARC to RMG.

Weirdly Ascot is on RTV today. Perhaps it's because it's Champion's Day?

Ascot is an independent course, so they can offer the license to whoever. On Champions day, part of the deal with moving it to Ascot was to get broader coverage.

Ascot 14.05 - Powerful Glory - 200/1 SP, 240 BFSP
Ascot 15:25 - Ciceros Gift - 100/1 SP, 140 BFSP

I see blogger is completely doing his nuts at Ascot today.

[jamesedwards]

16:29 @ Wolves, Wicket Keeper downed for £3.6k traded at 1.01. No drone up either!

I'd best have a look at his Twitter account - cheer myself up.

[jamesedwards]

Stratford 15:40, Jonjo O'Neill who finished 6th on Cawthorne Banker failed to weigh in and was disqualified.

How does this happen so often?

They also use a different system via longines which has its own nuances when you use the data.

[jamesedwards]

16:35 Leopardstown, a whopping £12.2k @ 1.01 done after FPTP was disqualified for interference, despite a 3.25l winning distance. Don't see them very often.

[jamesedwards]

Colours mix-up Bath 15:55. Asinara (fav) backed down to 1.01 for £420 traded, similar colours to the winner.

Actually, I'm not so sure it was the colours. Looking at the data, money came very late as Asinara was surging, and with the drone at an unusual angle, it might have been someone who thought there was a bit further left to run.
