Hello,

Can you tell me the best way to place a lay bet on a horse that is the 2nd Fav and he runs on position 4? (Is this possible in the UK & Ire races?)

And should i choose bet type by favorite position or runner position?

Thank you

You can use following Selection conditions:
1. Bet type by favorite position and set it to Lay 2nd favorite by position
2. Filter horses by detailed information and set it to allow betting only on runners with cloth number 4

Then test it in simulation mode.

Thank for the quick response

i just have another question. for example, i have a lay bet on the 2nd and on the 3rd fav on the same race, and the bot selects the same horse on that 2 favourite positions, how can i prevent this.

in the last race at warwick the same horse (Hurricane Mitch) was considered 2nd, 3rd and 4th favourite!

i set the time to bet at 15 seconds prior the start of the race in all diferent strategies so how can i prevent this?

thank you

Horse favorite position changes as its price at market changes. You cannot prevent that, as offer on market is changed as users place bets.

You can post screenshots of your Selection conditions here and we will check them to ensure that you have set them correctly.

You can set it to use prices from before inplay and bet in live, so it doesnt messes up
