likewise, on the greyhounds you could target only certain grades, i.e. A5, D2, NOT D8 etc, etc
Race Type Condition
i think what I'm saying is that by allowing the input to be freeform (but with strict rules), it means that the nuances of different sports can be captured as required, without having to present a ton of dropdown list options.

Always educated to choose markets carefully, heck Peter's mantra, "Every strategy a market and every market a strategy" means this would be a big improvement to an already amazing piece of software.
