Racing Post Data (3rd May 2017)

Post by TheBetEngine »

We have been unable to get hold of the normal Racing Post data so far today.

Unfortunately, this means that there are no RP forecast odds, and the flags data will be incomplete (particularly around the status of Beaten Favourites)

The issues are further compounded by our commercial Internet provider being offline due a network outage at their main switching centre, so we are unable at present to even look into the issue :-(

I'll post any updates as soon as I can.

It seems that the Racing Post issue was caused by a change in the security protocol being used on the Racing Post website.

We have implemented a quick fix and have managed to upload the missing data to the server.

If you need to load the data (i.e. you use RP forecast odds or you are reliant upon the RP BF status flag), then you should force a reload of the data. To do this, go to the Filter tab and double-click on the green "Loaded" message.

Apologies for the inconvenience.
