1. Where do I find the odds displays?
    The odds displays for all tracks on the day are shown in the odds area. The odds area shows the available tracks in the left area. The odds for the first track for the selected day will be shown in the right hand area. To select another track, click on the required track in the left area.
  2. Where are the odds displays for the other races?
    The data feed that we receive to generate the odds displays has information for the next race only. Thus only the next race will have page links, and new page links are added as the raceday progresses. The fixed odds information is entered manually, and so all the races are available.
  3. Why do the odds sometimes change after the race has started?
    The betting is usually closed when the horses jump. The wagering system has a fixed frequency at which it updates the odds information. This information is then requested by the various display mechanisms (Teledata, Internet, Infield boards, TV's etc) which are also updated at a fixed frequency. Internal processing on some of these machines can also add to the delay. Overall, the odds displayed should be finalised within 1 minute of the race starting (which is usually before the horses cross the finishing line).
  4. How often are the odds updated?
    The odds are updated within a minute of their being received in the racing office. They are marked as being "Provisional" until the race is made paying. The tickets left for the Exotic bets are updated within a minute of the collations being done on the main computer.
    Take note, however, that the odds system is usually started at 09h30 every day, and before that the previous day's odds will still be showing.
    The runons are usually updated by 11h00 on the working day following the race meeting.
  5. Where do I find past odds?
    Links to the today's and the 6 previous days are on the main odds page. From there, click on the "Previous" link. This shows an index page. The 7 days prior to those already shown are in the day's directory (e.g. "030912"). After that, odds are moved into a monthly directory (e.g. "0308") and then into annual directories (e.g. "2002"). To find the odds that you require, you may have to go down a few levels.
  6. My screen still show yesterday's venues. Where are today's?
    The odds pages are set to expire every midnight, and so your browser should reload the page on a new day. Sometimes, this does not happen automatically, and needs to be done manually. Press the Refresh button on your browser.
    See Question 3 for a note regarding the daily start time.
