Hi,
Tips are published 30 seconds before a race start time. They remain on the server for 60 seconds after the start time.
This list of races for each day is published here: Racing Schedule
The Stop Loss mechanism is handled on our side. We simply stop publishing tips for a specific race course, or on a specific day when loss limits have been reached. You should bet immediately when a tip is retrieved, though we recommend submitting the bet for BSP (starting price). See Pre Race Prices versus BSP for the current pre-race prices compared to the starting Price.
A tip will look like this in html:
The format is: (race time), (Runner name),(prediction model number (1-6))
Whereas when a course OR daily stop loss has been reached, you will see this message:
‘
You should keep polling our servers until the last race of each day, due to the way the Gen2 Stop Loss works, see Gen2 Stop Loss.
Let me know if you need more guidance,
Cheers
Nick
