Not sure what happened there!

Was clicking like crazy on all the runners,thinking it was someones bot gone wrong, though dont think anything was matched, surely going to be void.

Looking at the betfair charts though after the race the runner up was backed at 2.14? So someone was still playing in running?

I didnt think there was a problem with that race?
I know the betfair screen shot doesnt look right, this is what I captured off betangel as it suspended..

Perhaps it came back right at the end of the race.My Betangel screen looked the same as the Betfair one for most of the race because i was clicking on all the 1.04's trying to lay them, but nothing was happening!

Yup I saw that at the end of the race when suspended but definitely saw lots of large prices across all runners, at one stage they were all priced up at 1000

Was running some automation today and all runners were available at 1.04 in running. My bot backed the fav at 65 at the off. Can't see anything on the charts but on Bet Angel 100,000's appeared on the lay side of all runners just after the off, down to 1.04 on all. On BA it looked like the false prices were being ignored and genuine prices were being matched IR?

Matched at 65? Running in practice though..

regrettably, once again, Betfair's software has screwed up. When it went in play it went crazy and gave the prices you refer to and seemed to have money all over the ladder. I could see the alert bar on the BA ladder flashing away but you couldn't really lay anything. It is still ssupended whilst Betfair try and sort it out. From my pespective, it is tying up £500 of my bank - bloody pain

I had a shock when the green-up all was showing a four-figure profit on my dutch bets LOL.

Then I realised the lay @ 1.04 on all of them were NOT getting matched.

I had virtual prices on, I think Peter suggests that he didn't have the same issues with it unticked? Possibly that's part of the issue?
