Hi everyone, I am trying to include the historical odds whereby I want the favourite to be backed if all the others are trading above a certain odd. So say the favourite is trading at 2.0 and all the others are say trading at +4, so odds of 6.0 or above? Does this look right? as it doesn't seem to be working and not sure if i have it correct.

You need Relative odds to do this. And if you think about it you'll only need to compare it to the odds of the 2nd favourite.

Selection B should be
Nominated - in Position 2 order of favouritism

(ie, if the 2nd fav is 4 ticks higher then the rest of the field will be even higher)

@Dallas, thanks for the help - I've changed it now and will see how I get on.

@Juke, why relative and not historical?
