I just had something happen that hasn't occurred before. I had a £50 bet inplay for the 3 ticks with greening.This worked fine. But the horse continued to go well nearer the finish and I went in with another £50 which was taken. The horse won but when the race greened up there was a profit on everything but the winning horse. I finished up with £3 loss. How might that have happened?

Aha. I often forget about the log. It's very useful.
The green-up was only partially filled and the lay on the winner wasn't filled. I guess this is what happens trying to green-up too near the finish. There wasn't time to turn off the global settings .
It's the only time it's ever happened to me and I've learned a new lesson. Ho-hum.
