No offence intended, but I'm always surprised that people have questioned whether getting live real-time data from the racecourse is useful or not. It clearly is.
I mean, obviously you have to put it to use in the right way. I've seen people use it badly, but it's an absolute gold mine of information.
Hi all,
Thanks for the replies .I did subscribe a while back but found that rather than it enhancing things ,it just added another layer to the conundrum .The lack of historical data is still IMHO a major disadvantage.It would be the only way that you can evaluate the significence of the various pointers.Knowing how C1s behave over 7 furlongs in small fields would be useful and so on.I suppose a database could be built up manually over a period of time,but it would require some effort,not least recording every single race every single day on Bet Mover (or BA).I suppose that could be an interesting exercise though .

...from the man himself!
Personally I trade in play and I found the complexity and breadth of information too much for what I was doing and cancelled my subscription. I can see there are v likely plenty of methods of trading which TPB would enhance but it just didn't help me.
TPD is basically a data business (they monetise data) so you could get historical data, but it would cost you an arm and a leg.tico wrote: ↑Thu May 14, 2026 3:12 pmHi all,

Yes TPD is now available for all British racing tracks. I use it all the time. It gives you a clear information of how the race is progressing and to make trading decisions based on that knowledge. I would not trade a race without it. I would suggest you watch Peter's videos for more information.
I dunno about that ,at a £100 a month for anything that is reasonably useful ,I reckon that's fairly heftytico wrote: ↑

It's been all British tracks for about a year. There were some positional accuracy issues with the newly added RMG tracks which have been improved significantly since a new data process went live a few months ago.tryingtotrade wrote: ↑Fri May 15, 2026 5:02 pmnot all of them, maybe 60%Mdave1 wrote: ↑Fri May 15, 2026 11:47 amYes TPD is now available for all British racing tracks.
