I would like to lay the field maybe 5 minutes before the off, but just use the market odds. I notice that in Bet Angel it requires you to choose the odds, I would rather just lay at the current odds at that time if that makes sense?

Is there an easy way to do this, I am trying to come up with something :)

Bookmaking will do this or the automation area.

I'd vote for automation. Easy to do and you'll get a job lot of positions populate in Guardian quick as a flash.

Failure as a strategy, of course, but you've twigged that right?

I'm thinking of laying them all at equal stakes, I ran some numbers and it seemed profitable

I am going to try the automation now, I am really new to this

Jeeps. Don't lay them all at equal stakes, your bank roll will get pasted.

If you lay a 3:1 at 100, you may feel comfy about that, but lay a 50:1 at 100... that'll be the one that wins tomorrow!!

My recommendation - if you want an across the board approach - is focus on lay by liability at GBP20 max and ignore any selections that run beyond that.

Good luck!

Good luck, but that strikes me as gambling if you're doing it blindly on every race (given that you aren't exploiting a market inefficiency).

Have you considered the effect of a late scratching ?

Plan B may need to be a disaster recovery plan.
