Sounds great. Maybe @Valiant Thor could adapt these for his own use; I hate the thought of him having to update all the racing results on a daily basis. This must take a long time.

Don Scott used weight and lengths beaten to create his own tissue prices then backed his perceived value bets in the race . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyHills Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 @The Equaliser I dont think you will find the actual Timeform ratings for free? I'm not sure, but why would they charge a few quid per card for them on their site if you can get them free elsewhere? I used to buy the black book from Timeform many years ago, that was before you could find all this info on the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did find Timeform references under Form and Results tab but I would have to register and presumably pay to join. Can you help? I assume then you don't have an account with Betfair ? You do need to register but all you need to do is deposit some money to bet with; you don't have to pay to access the Timeform information.

I was just wondering if you logon from to a different platform other than Betfair Uk as I cannot find the button that you mention? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to buy the black book from Timeform many years ago, that was before you could find all this info on the net. I think you are right. One thing that annoys me about TImeform is that although you might get all the breeding data is that it does little to help armchair punters like myself. They don't report or update details about a horse; e.g. is it a horse that is small in stature and whether it is suited to sharp tracks on a sound surface. Or if it is a long striding big horse that is suited to galloping tracks. As a horse matures they do not indicate how and in which way a horse has developed and what sort of races and tracks that it now best suited to. I will probably just have to stick with the star ratings and Timeform selections on the ATR website. I will at least be seeing at least four of the top ratings. Besides, as has been pointed out now that PaddyPower owns Timeform I have to be concerned about how independent these ratings will be in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyHills Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 @The Equaliser Ok think ive sussed this now. Its a time limited extension for Chrome (or Edge) that you can download When you open a race on the exchanges the button appears and the Timeform ratings are on the card I have done a screenshot for the big handicap at Fontwell tomorrow to demonstrate You can get the extension by downloading this link https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/betfair-plugin/jooiphaopcinjoledmchmemihmdcdfio?hl=en-GB I'll copy this into the General Chat thread too for other users.
