Assuming the Average odds were 2.88 (approx based on the odds of those losers) something on these lines....

But you know you may be only one bet away from breaking even!

I've been doing some interesting work with historical TPD sectional and stride data. I put this multi-strategy code live on a certain day. Then got my code to go back and return the daily results it would have had for August so far (all previously unseen data)

Any guesses as to which day I put it live

Not the sort of money you normally expect to find available on a horse half a length up 10 yards out.

Unfortunately I was just too slow to grab any of the triple digit prices.

Unfortunately I was just too slow to grab any of the triple digit prices.

The odds dropped from 10.5 to 1.1 at least 3 secs from the finish - that's about 50 metres
( At typical racing speeds, a horse covers roughly 16–17 metres per second )

19/08/2026 18:53:16: Move It On Over: BPLo = 10.5
19/08/2026 18:53:16: Move It On Over: BPLo = 1.1
19/08/2026 18:53:19: Move It On Over: BP = 1.08
19/08/2026 18:53:19: Move It On Over: LP = 1.01

Also, not the sort of 'odds' you normally find on a horse leading 2 out, 5th at the last, finished 7th

What a race the Yorkshire Oaks was.

What a race the Yorkshire Oaks was.

TPD comes into it's own when a horse runs way off in front.

Agree, I've earmarked the race to review later.
