Hi

Just learning automation in greyhound racing I have been trying to automate backing the favourite in the place market between certain prices. However it doesn't seem to back the favourite? In the coditions tab what do I select to do this.

thanks in advance

You don't need any conditions, the rule just needs to be applied to the following on the General tab
'By Position (sorted in order of Favouritism) 1'

By default, the order of favouritism is determined by the selection with the lowest back price, ie, if you had the following
Selection A
Back 3.3
Lay 3.55

Selection B
Back 1.9
Lay 16.0

Selection B would be defined as the favourite as its back price is lower

You can change the way the fav is determined to lay price or last traded price in your main settings on the automation tab, but on greyhound and other unformed markets your better adding a condition to test the market is formed, ie you could use the book% and/or a relative odds condition to check if the back/lay price are close to each other (no large gaps) or even just a 'matched volume condition' to ensure a decent amount has been matched therefore the market should be or almost be formed
