They have been removed permanently and will not be offered again according to the Traders when I asked yesterday.
A shocking and pointless decision, based supposedly on a lack of liquidity, despite there being literally hundreds of markets all over the exchange that generate nothing like the turnover distances do. |

I'm disappointed that Bf have made this apparent decision. I played this market regularly with varying degrees of success and failure. The lack of a notification or advisory regarding this decision and just arbitrarily deleting this market shows a disregard for regular Bf players. Betfair was initially set up to offer markets where 'punters' with differing opinions on an outcome of an event could trade between each other, it was a facility and not based on liquidity.
Unlike most markets though, the 'Daily Winning Distance' market required someone at Bf to decide on the actual high and low distances to formulate the market. But lets be honest they were entirely guided by Sp Index, it's no coincidence that the markets were only ever displayed after SI produced their spread. Bf may say that there is an opportunity to play distances at each meeting on their Sportsbook, however as one contributor pointed out, the over-round percentage is unacceptable to an exchange player. Moreover the sportsbook distances offer no in-running possibility nor the ability to 'lay' under or over. Over time, Bf's decision will, i'm sure save me money and cost them a little bit of commission but it leaves a bad taste. |

until recently BF set its own lines
usually too high on unders but in the last few months that changed to mirror the PP & sportsbook lines and yes they only copy across from the spread line was a time when the spreads would be 30-33 & the firms would go up 25-38 looks right but isn't because distances are skewed to unders now its 21-33 or 22-34...and no value unless you deem spread line to be wrong |

just a rough guess depending on how many meetings a day could be making 300 hundred a day 2000 a week and 100000 a year in comission why dont they offer a job to someone for 20000 a year to do these markets.every ones a winner.
