(16:48:01) Stereojohnics: Good evening Mark
(16:48:02) markwales: The starter has arrived at the track, and is currently out inspecting the course.
(16:48:15) markwales: Hi John
(16:50:11) Stereojohnics: How's things?
(16:50:14) markwales: 11 races here at Win2Win Downs today, attracting some of the best horses we've seen so far
(16:50:28) markwales: The Gimcrack looks to be a stormer, and the winner will turn out to be a VERy good horse indeed
(16:50:45) Stereojohnics: I'm all excited!
(16:50:49) markwales: Just writing a few build ups !!..lol
(16:50:57) Stereojohnics: Hehe I see
(16:51:22) markwales: There will be some highs, and also some lows throughout today's racing
(16:53:52) markwales: the Derby, Oaks, King George, Guineas, Arc De Triomphe, Melbourne Cup, Breeders Cup and many more big races to aim for
(16:54:09) markwales: The race values will dictate their imprtance
(16:54:17) Stereojohnics: This is so realistic it's unreal
(16:54:21) markwales: lol
(17:14:30) markwales: Hi Paul
(17:14:56) yerotsluap: Hi mark
(17:15:10) Stereojohnics: Hello Paul
(17:15:14) yerotsluap: Hi Stereo
(17:22:05) markwales: OK, the Vets report has just been handed to me, and I can say that there has been 1 INJURY this week....
(17:22:14) piggy: hi all
(17:22:31) markwales: hi piggy, hi mat
(17:22:36) yerotsluap: Let me guess Mark Don't cross the boss
(17:22:39) mathare: Evening all
(17:22:58) yerotsluap: Hi Piggy, Hi Mat
(17:23:03) markwales: No Paul....but it is a high profile injury
(17:23:32) mathare: How do injuries work again? Is the length of time the nag is injured for fixed or variable?
(17:23:46) markwales: the length of time is always 1 week
(17:24:01) mathare: Have you considered making it variable?
(17:24:23) markwales: I could do that yes, wouldn't be a problem
(17:25:33) mathare: It could be weighted so the chance of a long-term injury is lower than that for short-term ones
(17:25:56) markwales: yes they were my thoughts too
(17:26:12) markwales: I will try it from season 2, don't want to change too much prior to the end of the season now
(17:26:25) Oldham: Hi all - gonna close betting and P6
(17:26:28) Stereojohnics: Hi Oldham + JJ
(17:26:33) markwales: hi Oldham, Hi JJ
(17:26:38) mathare: That makes sense Mark. I assume week 11 is racing only, no training
(17:26:46) yerotsluap: Hi Oldham, Hi JJ
(17:26:49) jollyjayne: Hi folks
(17:28:07) Oldham: P6 and betting now closed
(17:29:02) Stereojohnics: Nice way of doing it Oldham
(17:29:45) Oldham: It works SJ - I open again them when I update them
(17:29:47) markwales: Well the crowds have just dispersed from what was a great afternoons racing.....race 1 was an absolute corker seeing one of the best finishes we've had this season, other races gace us some impressive performances,and also some disappointments along the way
(17:31:01) Stereojohnics: Nice timing - hello
(17:31:09) markwales: For this week, and this week only, I'm going to read the races from race 11, down to race 1....this is because race 1 is by far the best quality race we've seen so far, and the tension needs to mount !!
(17:31:33) Stereojohnics: I bloody knew it!
(17:32:06) Oldham: I'll just turn the spreadsheet upside down..

RE: Exchange mentioned above.

I am working on a webpage to simulate a betting Exchange. The amount of code involved to set this up to work properly means that it is unlikely to be ready for a few weeks. I have the basic 'skeleton' done and anyone who wants a preview can see it here: http://www.racingwhisper.com/simfair/

It is not going to be a Betfair clone! But with a bit of luck, it will be functional.

Thanks Oldham, will know for next time.

The exchange looks great, good idea - hope you can get it fully functional the way you want it to.
