Can anyone give an explanation as to roughly how bf calculates their starting price ?
The underlying question I'm trying to answer is: if for example I place a large amount as a normal lay bet but set it to take SP at the off, how does that one bet affect the eventual SP (up or down) ?
all depends how much is waiting another eg - Remember when TWIST MAGIC stole an early lead in the tingle creek BSP was 3.05 while ISP was 9/4 Fast pic boys battered it just after the off while we were SUSPENDED and hence the price

There is some information about the SP available in the help section (see below). If this doesn't satisfy your enquiry then you may be able obtain a satisfactory response quicker on the Horse Racing forum.

Just seen this on the Massey Forumhttp://www.adrianmassey.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=9151&start=0Apparently the expert on BSP is Horsetrader "Of course I have far less experience of this than Sarah does (well - who doesn't?)" .
That Sarah is a waste of space. Told evreyone she was an exbookie but it turns out she just used to work at one. I read he other comments on BSP and she doesnt know what she is talking about
