Easter Bank Holiday racing

[Euler]

Here is a summary for you: -

Fairyhouse has £250k of prize money today. All seven UK race meetings combined have £206k!

There are 602 runners today over 66 races, an average of 9 runners per race. Based upon long term averages today's racing is likely to exhibit about normal volatility against what we would typically expect to see.

If all races start on time, then there will be 22 clashes today. If races start on their average start time (usually later than post time) then we could see 31 clashes.

Better still; If you're running on auto, fire up two instances, stagger the races on each (so you dont miss any)...and still enjoy the sun!
20 req/Sec are long gone!

I seemed to get caught in every reversal today. Seemed like any time a runner broke the range the price wanted to snap back.

Over what period do you mesaure this against Peter?

I have noticed that races seem to be going off a lot more to schedule since they brought in these new starting procedures so I wondered if your data was based on post these changes or pre?

If pre maybe the data could be incorrect now?

It would also be interesting to see if the new procedures have actually made much of a difference to races going off on time.

I use expected starting times and standard times for the racing. It's updated constantly so it's pretty accurate and I think we saw that on the day, hardly a race finished before another started.
