Anyone tell me where I can find info on UK tote pools when they have a 'jackpot in'? For example Doncaster 1 today had a Trifecta pool of 97K, I assume there must have been a jackpot in, but how does one find this out in advance?

That's what I use.

yes I had been trying that site, but for example I look at;

https://www.totepoolliveinfo.com/2018-09-15/racecard/Doncaster/Trifecta/0

and no where do I see where it shows there was any jackpot in. Now hard to believe but perhaps there was not a jackpot in on that race, but I have looked at many races over many days and I have never seen a single example where it says a pool had a jackpot in component.

I see that the main page of that site does have a banner of images, one of which shows 'Big money rollover in the Doncaster 13.50'.

However that would require to be manually looked at each day, I am looking for something where the data could be fetched automatically, an XML feed, an API, even a web site that display the info as text rather than an image would do.

You are talking about the TOTE, here ...

You need to lower your aspirations.

Er, what do you mean by a Jackpot in?

The UK Tote has a bet called the Jackpot but it covers a meeting, not a single race, so perhaps the reason you (OP, @prestbury8) cannot find races with "jackpots in" is we call that bet something else.

Think he means 'Carry-Overs' - from Tricasts that are only part won - such as the Tricast Carry-Over to the Portland Handicap  - or the most difficult race each Saturday, which appears to receive any Tricast Carry-Overs.

yes I mean a carry-over or rollover, amounts not won from previous pools that are added to a pool that effectively creates a pool with less commission than normal. The info is here;

It's just that it's not usuable in an image format. Every other tote in the world has an API or at the very least displays it on a website in text format, that is what I am searching for.
