No bets were placed on the win market for me, don't know why. When I brought up the live video the race was about 2 furlongs to run and I noticed bets had been placed on the place market and unmatched bets were still showing. I immediately cancelled all but got a severe doing on the place market.

Had similar problems with the 4:35 Ascot win market. Only 2 bets were placed. All other markets have worked fine. I take it from the silence the problem must be in my programming?

I had an inRuning bets submitted via the API and matched in the 15.55 Ascot (about a furlong out) and also in the 13.35 and 15.20. I don't expect to have more than 1 or 2 bets submitted in running, so it looks ok to me.

sorry ... should have said, they were all submitted into the Win Market and matched in the Win Market.

Cheers gus. All worked well in the last at Ascot so I don't know what went wrong. At first I thought I maybe had a wrong Market ID but the fact it did place 2 bets in the 2nd of the offending markets rules that out. It's a strange one because my programme's being working pretty much without hitch for 7 weeks now.

BTW, it probably save me money overall.

Problem was in PlaceBets. Due to a rounding error my programme was submitting a stake with more than 2 numbers after the decimal point which resulted in all bets submitted being rejected. I had forgotten to write code to check the response for individual bet errors and take remedial action. Sad
