Title: Equibase now has real time changes and scratches
Post by: Cangamble on October 02, 2009, 10:01:46 PM
Some players say ho hum.  I think it is a great new free resource, and it is about time.
Now I don\'t have to bang my head on my keyboard wondering if a race is off the grass or not.

Paulick has written an article which gives insight on how the real time change idea came about:

Hello,
Just wanted to let you know that this would be great but it is not usually updated.  
It does not always contain changes other than scratches ie...jock change, weight change, track condition, or anything.  A lot of times it has the information from the day before in there..I just checked for Keeneland\'s info and it has Sunday\'s info in it.  This has happened a couple of times with other tracks too, even though post time for the first race was close.
Just an FYI to hopefully get it working correctly as it can be valuable if done properly.
Thanks
