15:40 at Huntingdon just suspend mid race ??

Race voided.

Spanish Darling backers completely shafted there. Was 1.17 before the off, but SP of 2.47 on Betfair.

Not sure I understand what you mean by shafting, could you expand please? Horse unseated the rider

Backers didn't get a chance and the horse was deemed a runner.

£6280 matched at 1.01 well after the race, and from what I can see seems to have stood through settlement. Perhaps a freak anomaly from Betfair reworking the BSP?

I thought it was because somebody assumed it would be a non-runner and late on took everything from 1000 to 1.01, pushing the clear winner out to 30+, then when official result gives horse as a runner, unseated runner, he loses the lot?

It was matched 10 mins after the race finished.

OK i didn't realise it was that long; did race suspend on time? i can understand if it was a few seconds after the finish, maybe suspend monkey like a rabbit in the headlights after the start and calculated BSP, and not reacting. I've been an idiot.

Nope, the 1.01 match occurred during the resettlement/BSP revision period after the race:
> Actual race off: 12:45:17
> Betfair in-play: 12:45:22
> Actual race finish: 12:49:11
> Betfair suspend: 12:49:14
> 1.01 matched: 12:59:01

Just reconcilled the market this evening, original SP was 63.6% so I guess that's why they corrected it.
