How Many Races

Postby easternpromise » Wed Jul 13, 2011 2:42 pm

On average how many UK horse races are there (all disciplines) per year.

Also how many Irish horse races are there per year ?

I'm sure a budding statistician will give the correct answer but untill they do
Uk I believe is around 9000
Irish I am unsure.

I don't think you are correct there, that would be over 25 meetings a day, unless you are including all meetings not just the ones covered by Betfair.

I have not looked at the total but my guess would be more like less than 2500 this would include irish races covered by betfair.

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.
