..when they are running? With UK races I can take the offered price/loss in Bet Angel as the race progresses but not with US races, which are suspended at the off. Also, is this the case just for US races, or all foreign races? Due to work commitments I am interested in betting in the evenings, when most of the action happens to be abroad.

Cheers, John.

Betfair only turn selected foreign races in-play.

Thanks. Is there a way of finding out which ones?

On the betfair site you can see this as such markets have a 'going in play' grey button.

Australian Races are ok say at 5am in the mornings, on some tracks, the volume aint bad, because i have to get up then for some shifts i sometimes have a go with good sucsess, but be warned i only do pre race trades, in play on the Aussie races the Back price could dissapear leaving you open like the US races
