More likely it was a back bet where the bsp returned a lot higher the offset lay leaving you a small green on the runner but red elsewhere. You should easily figure it out from the market's bet history.

i.e. you back £100 @ 2.1 your offset lay is submitted at £105 @ 2 hoping for a £5 green book. The offset lay of £105 isn't matched and the BSP is returned at 2.5 cos of a slow start,drift etc. Your £105 lay liability now gets converted to a £70 lay at 2.5 so your overall position is +£5 (110-105) on the traded runner but -£30 ( 70 from bsp lay less 100 stake)on all the other runners


Are you still traded the races or doing the financials now, Andy? How's that going and was the switch easy if you switched.
