I'm trying to back the top weight in a handicap under certain conditions, however I don't know where the condition is that lets me select horse number 1 (I.E. top weight) can anyone help?

Thanks

Hi Rizzo

I'm not sure if 'runner by position' would work here as if '1' selected it might give you number 1 in the race as it works for UK greyhounds trap 1 etc. This would be assuming that number 1 was always the top weight, you could filter race type by handicap also.

Hi Rizzo,

I believe that weight is not always available e.g. it might be available only for UK/Irish races, so this does not seem very useful to me at this moment. Lets see what others say.

Hi All
I think there may be a way around this.
Under Selections condition, Selections filter there is an option to determine the favourite by official rating. In a handicap race the weights are based on the official rating so by using this condition would it not select the top weight?
