Bookies Track Odds
 
What is going on?
I've been searching for historical race results with bookie track fluctuations, and when ever you search by date, there is no page of results, just the dividends of the winners. They don't want us to access historical track odds for some reason.
Tried a lot of sites and they are all the same, some give today's and yesterday's, but that's it.

Just like 365 and others, they don't want us to know.

Yeah, not only don't they want you to win, but not even learn how to, using historical data.

I've been busy downloading every Betfair file from the AUS site, not the UK. A little more reliable. Just in preparation for BF, ditching that too.

Top Sports still has some historical flucs, but I used Unibet a while back to fill in some gaps I had & looks like they no longer provide any.

And this is why data collection of even things you never thought you might need is important.

I collect so much stuff and most of it is useless.

One for the boffins?
 
I just downloaded a years data on Trots and Gallops to one master Workbook. There were something like 360,000 horses. How could you make $1, by betting every horse racing each and every day.

Not greedy, just want $1......:)

Get just 1% over the BFSP price plus commission, plus levy.

Yes the old Betchoice now Unibet upgraded their site 2 weeks ago.

The Bot I was using to record all fluctuations became useless & I had
To get another one made up.

Then they did some maintenance work last week forcing another bot upgrade.

With the new site only 24 hours previous back data is kept unfortunately.

Some like T/Waterhouse Sportingbet etc the on course prices,
Disappear now when the no's come up after a race is run.

Cheers.

Im glad to see I was not the only one affected. This is what sucks about scrapping websites.

But out of every move comes a positive, there's a reason they don't want punters to see past fluctuations and that makes me determined to find out why!
One of the very first was IAS, and there was gold in Mark's ratings.

As I posted above CP, Topsports still has flucs going back > 12 months, might want to grab what you need while you can.
