Does anyone know where I can find the Betfair non-runner information for completed horse races? I.e. the reduction factor percentages, and the times which they were applied.

Are you talking during the day, after the race was run or historically?

Sorry, I never came back to this!

On the day in question, I was looking for a specific withdrawn horse's reduction factor percentage, because I couldn't quite understand one of the calculations which Betfair had performed within my statement and bet history.

zergtrader: Thanks - this looks like what I'd been looking for in that instance. I shall bookmark it should this situation occur again in the future.

Betfair used to post the reduction factor changes regularly on their forum under 'markets'. But I just looked there and it seems they have stopped doing that for some reason? We often capture this data as a by product of looking at the market, so you are welcome to ask if you need something in particular.

Probably a cost-cutting exercise!

Thanks for the offer, Peter. That's good to know.

Is there anywhere I can get the same information regarding Jumps racing.

Forgot to say how I solved my problem.

I emailed Betfair and they said that my statement included all reduction factors.
