Its always possible. Unfortunately there are several steps involved:
1. Getting the data <-- Pay for it is the easiest method. Otherwise getting it from free sites means constant changes to the program when they update the sites with different formatting.
2. Getting someone to run the rules against your acquired data. This is the easy part depending on how its stored.
3. Placing the bet. This can be easy or hard depending on who you want to place the bet with.
There are very few people who can do this in the racing community and I have found those that can do like to keep to themselves.
You can probably get a contractor to do it from various web sites. They are usually o/s people such as malaysian, Vietnamese or Indians. They would probably set you up with an initial program in the range of $300-$500 but you might get it cheaper.
Another option is getting someone you know who can program to do it for you and paying them part of your profits from betting if your sure you will win. Obviously its a quick way to lose a friend if you keep losing and never pay them anything.
You could also learn to program yourself. It might be the best thing you ever learn.
