Today Seymour race 5 i had 3 runners.


2. Pull No Punches
4. Zanzidar
3. World Domination

2 were backed the fav was not and should have been a saver bet for me.

This is not every race it is random so something is going on for sure.


One reason is late scratchings clear out all bets and you sometime pick up a wild price in the mean time.

Another reason is that the times may have changed for the race and your bot has not adjusted for it.

Another reason is the race went into play (you were too late getting the bets on) and the figures you are matching against is the in play figures.
