Jockey silks and horse form very slow to load ??

Postby longshot88 » Wed Dec 16, 2020 10:55 am

Hi All
Anybody else experiencing the silks and form either very slow to load or not loading at all on the horse racing both in Eng and Aust for the past 2 days ?
All else seems to be fine, horse names and odds etc.

Thanks for any f/back.

Hi,

Seems to be a server issue at Betfair's end.
I'm seeing the same on their website.
I have reported it on their Customer Support Twitter feed.
See https://twitter.com/grusssoftware/status/1339140237981863936

Regards,
Mark

Thanks for that Mark.

While the silks are unimportant the form for me is critical so I assume that if the silks display is fixed it will in turn fix the form display?

Hi,

The silks and metadata are linked.
But it seems like it may have been resolved now anyway.

I’m still getting some missing silks today, often changing market to next race, then back brings up the missing silks.

Hi,

The Betfair servers must be still slow to respond then.
The software will keep trying to fetch the silks images whilst you have the market open.
Hopefully Betfair will fix this but we will continue to monitor and report to Betfair as necessary.

Regards,
Mark

I’m currently using a vpn,but it only loses a few milliseconds,I read on the forum someone mentioning silks were working better ,either with or without?
I’m wondering if it’s exasperated, by me using “hide prices above”.... as the main culprit is the favourite at the top of the market.

Silks back to normal, after changing vpn provider.

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.

Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.

Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.

He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.

We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
