Hi everyone

We have another update to the horse racing software on the way, with some long-awaited new features. This update will be deployed in the early hours of Wednesday morning, 27th March.

Here's what you've got to look forward to...

🏇 Report on multiple group breakdowns

Currently, you can choose a single stat as a group breakdown for your results. Now, you'll be able to select multiple stats and the software will return the group breakdowns for all the stats you've selected. This makes strategy analysis MUCH quicker. And it doesn't even take any longer to run each strategy when multiple groupings are selected 🙂

🏇 Price range staking ("Maria" staking)

You'll be able to define multiple price ranges in your staking plan and configure different stakes for each price range, e.g. if you want to lower your stakes for higher odds.

This works in conjunction with your other staking settings, so for example if you're staking a % of bank instead of flat stake, the value you enter in your ranges will be a % of bank instead of a flat stake.

🏇 New horse strategy rules

• Draw bias

• Compare DSLR rank to number of runners

• Lengths to winner

• DSLW (days since last win)

• PRB (Percentage of rivals beaten)

• Form rating (basically a sum of the last 3 finishing positions)

🏇 New jockey, trainer and jockey/trainer combo strategy rules

All of the below for jockey, trainer and jockey/trainer combo:

• Name (i.e. you can filter on specific jockeys and trainers, but also compare this jockey/trainer with previous runs, so you can find horses who have switched trainers etc)

• Runs

• Won at course

• Won at distance

• Won at course and distance

• DSLR

• DSLW

• Position (Obviously the position of the jockey is the same as the horse, but this means you can filter on jockey strike rate in past races like you can with horses)

🏇 New results breakdowns

• Minute by minute breakdown for entry times grouping

• Flat / jumps (basically a shortcut / combination of the flat vs jumps race types for convenience)

🏇 New racecard tables

We've swapped the market summary and market overview charts with some horse, jockey and trainer stats. That section doesn't look quite as pretty now, but we think the info is more useful.

You'll see this whenever browsing the race list for a particular course in the racecards.

🏇 Fixed racecard results

Currently, if you view past dates in the racecards, you don't always see the full results, because of a caching issue. We've fixed this so you can see the horse comments, finishing positions etc when viewing previous days in the racecards.

🏇 Beaten Fave LTO correction

In the racecards and daily highlights email, the "Beaten Fave LTO" stat was actually showing as true if the horse had EVER been a beaten fave, not just LTO. This has been corrected.

I'll be in touch again on Wednesday once the goodies have been deployed. Until then, happy trading!
