Sun 2-10-2011 Flemington race 7 there appears to be a discrepancy between the TAB column and the results window for the winner December Draw eg TAB column shows win $2.4 Place $1.8 yet results window displays Win $1.6 Place $1.10 which is the error? -- what is the correct Win price?

Thank you for your email We have experienced some technical difficulties today with our web site, and apologise for any inconvenience caused

did anybody else notice the technical errors today?

if the correct price was $2.4 then a lot of punters were short changed today bcoz it was best TAB price as well -- the others were $2.2 -- the displayed $1.6 looked a bit short

nice pick up. Very well spotted.

Having more issues today......the site is down!

Gees.Dont I know it.
Some of these other sites are like dragging teeth.

It was initially a planned outage for upgrades that morphed into an extended planned outage.

Love it - especially afterI finished writing code to check their race times against Betfair, a day to relax me thinks :-)

Late notice --

They are Back !!!
Just in tjme for the last at townsville ?

All new web site but can't access any results. It just comes up as "Raceday page for selected date not found." That's for ANY date.

There goes back checking anything where form is a factor. :rolleyes:

In response to the original post, I assume that the $1.60 was the correct price. I saw that dividend and was amazed as it was so much shorter than anywhere else.

But this is what I think might have happened. On Sunday, they were clearly having awful trouble and the approximate divs that were showing on screen weren't up to date, and they weren't changing. They were explaining this on the radio at the time. So what I think has happened is that punters saw a higher price for December Draw on Unitab compared to other totes and they all continued to jump on, therefore unknowingly smashing the price down to $1.60. Well, that's my possible theory anyway.

Sportz -- you may well be right but if that were the case then i would expect the win pool to be much bigger than normal and you would expect the quinella dividend to be much smaller as well -- the win pool was quite small and UNI Tab paid Q$9.8 cf NSW Q$8.9
