BTC Horse Stats Review 2023

Here’s my BTC Horse Stats Software Review. It’s quite a long read so you might want to grab yourself a cup of tea first….

Finally, after much anticipation, the Betfair Trading Community (BTC) Horse Racing Stats Software went live during 2022. It’s a great bit of kit. If you’re interested in building and testing horse racing trading or betting strategies, Read On!

Even if you know little about horse racing but are into Exchange Trading you might want to take a look. The BTC forum is very active and plenty of betting and trading strategies are shared by the community members. Help is always at hand if needed.

Since the horse software was launched there’s a regular stream of new horse racing strategies shared on the forum. Members then collaborate making suggestions to refine and improve them. After testing and rating as worth following, several strategies have been saved as Preset Strategies for all Members to use.

You can profit from the software without developing your own trading strategies. Every day, I use several proven profitable trading strategies shared by Betfair Trading Community members.

Why use BTC Horse Stats?

The software will appeal to people who like betting or trading on horse racing and want to test out different strategies or systems. I think it’s geared more for experienced bettors or traders. You don’t necessarily need a lot of horse racing experience. Indeed, several BTC members with football or tennis trading experience have used their skills to expand into another sport.

You might have very little experience of horse racing or system testing software. But if you’re interested in trading, you still might want to check out the software. It doesn’t take long to get a good feel for the kit and there’s loads of support available.

The stats software’s main use is to Test Betting or Trading Strategies. I’ll take you through the process a little later but it’s easy to get going and find out if a system is profitable.

When you’ve fully tested one or more strategies, you might decide to start trading them. Each Strategy has an option to ‘Activate‘ it in your ‘Strategy Bunker‘. The software will then check for daily qualifiers for all of your Activated strategies.

You can then download a file with your daily qualifiers and trade them during the day. Alternatively, if you use a trading bot/software you can set it up to trade the qualifiers automatically (more details below).

Back-test Trading or Betting Strategies

As you can see above, there are multiple features in the software. At the core is the ability to Back-test your Trading Strategies. You can find out how profitable they would have been and might be in the future.

Backing Strategy

If you’re interested in betting on horse racing, you’ve probably wondered at some time “What if I backed all horses which…” Luckily, you only really need the inkling of an idea to get you started. There can be any number of endings to the question, they might include:-

  • …are running again in a handicap race after winning their last race less than a week ago
  • …have travelled more than 200 miles to the racecourse
  • …are carrying the lowest weight
  • …are favourite, with a price between Evens and 2/1, are running on the All Weather with less than 8 runners
  • …have previously won at the same course and distance
  • …are the outsider in a 3 runner race…. etc etc

The Horse Stats allow you to build a set of Horse Selection Rules to support all the above queries and more.

Laying Strategy

Alternatively, you might want to test out a laying strategy. You could take all of the questions above and reverse them to query whether it’s profitable to Lay the selections. Fortunately, I’m sure you can be more creative and again the Horse Selection Rules let you easily simulate Lay strategies.

Trading Strategy (Lay to Back / Back to Lay)

This is where, for me, things get much more interesting. Trading is based on placing back and lay bets at different times. With horse racing, prices are generally stable in the run up to a race starting. Yes, there are market movers with Steamers getting back heavily. Alternatively, Drifters where their odds increase as they are friendless in the market.

Usually the horses prices are fairly steady until the race starts, particularly in races with larger fields. Once, the race starts, a horse’s price will bounce around depending on how it’s running. The end point for Betfair prices is usually 1.01 if a horse wins or up to 1,000 for the remainder.

When trading, you’re aiming to either Back at a higher price than you Lay (B2L) or Lay at a lower price than you Back (L2B). Achieve either of those and you can either lock-in a guaranteed profit or a free bet on 1+ horses.

With a total price range between 1.01 and 1,000, there are 350 different Betfair prices. Depending on your trading strategy you might only be looking to scalp the market and gain 1 tick. Alternatively, you might be looking for a large swing in price – Back at 10.0 and Lay at 6.0 (20 ticks).

The BTC Horse Software let’s you build and test any number of different Trading strategies. Further, you can simulate Backing or Laying and then Trading Out based on a comprehensive set of Rules. All Betfair prices traded in-running are held in the software. Your strategy can include a Back to Lay or Lay to Back before the race starts, straddle the start time or based solely in running.

‘Betting Rules’

Once you’ve created your ‘Horse Selection Rules‘, you need to decide on your ‘Betting Rules‘. These then have options to Back, Lay or Trade Out at different times using the Betfair prices or BSP. As an example, you could check whether your profit for a strategy improves if you back at BSP or take a price on Betfair 10 minutes before the start of a race.

You might want to test a Dobbing strategy. Here, you Back a horse and aim to Lay it at a lower price in running for a 1 point return. Take a look at the Rules Parameters below…

Refine Strategies using Advanced Query Options

‘Selection Rules’

To create a Query you set your ‘Selection Rules‘ and these can be based on the following parameters:-

Race Time

Date / Month / Year / Time of Day / Day of Week / Day of Month

Course

Course / Going / Direction / Country / Characteristics / TV Coverage

Race

Race Name / Prize Value / No. of Runners / No. of Non-Runners / Class / Classifications / Race Type / Handicap / Race Distance / Min Age / Max Age / Total Traded

Horse Metrics

Draw / Nationality / Non-Finisher / Age / Age Rank / Weight / Weight Rank / Gender / Distance Travelled / Official Rating / Official Rating Rank / Pace Rating / Pace Letter / Pace Rank / Days Since Last Run (DSLR) / DSLR Rank / Runs / Finishing Position

Handicap

Handicap / Handicap Rank

Course & Distance

Won Course (C) / Won Distance (D) / Won Course & Distance (CD)

Prices

Betfair Starting Price (BSP) / BSP Rank / Forecast Price / Forecast Price Rank / Morning Price / Morning Price Rank / Evening Price / Evening Price Rank / Highest Price (Pre-Race) / Highest Price (In-Running) / Lowest Price (Pre-Race) / Lowest Price (In-Running) / Favourite / Favourite Price / Beaten Fave

Traded on Betfair

Traded / Traded Rank / Book Impact

Different Rule Types & Comparisons

All the above parameters can be used to create Rules. There are different types of Rules – Values and Comparisons.

The simplest Values use picklists such as all races at particular Course(s), the Race Class, choose races where the Going was Good etc. Other numeric ‘Values’ allow you to select based on ranges such BSP between 2.0 and 3.0 or No. of Runners is from 8 to 12.

As well as basic rules using the parameters, you can create complex “What If” queries. You can make comparisons between horses and values.

Comparisons are very powerful and there are many ways to use them

For example, you might want to check for horses that might be candidates for Dobbing. To do so, you create a Rule where a horse’s in-running price dropped to 50% of BSP in previous races.

Rules can be Grouped and set to apply where ANY or NONE of the Rules are met. You can create multiple Rule Groups within the same strategy.

If you’re not sure how to set up your Rules, the BTC team and community of members are always willing to help.

How to Use BTC Horse Stats (an example)

In my BTC Horse Software Review, I thought the easiest way to explain the software is to run through the process. When I first used it, I took a little while to get the hang of the many features. Now it’s dead easy to use and I’m continually thinking of new ways to test out my ideas…

Example Strategy – 3 Runner Races

I was watching horse racing recently and there was a race with just 3 runners. You might think that’s about as boring as racing gets. However, the race turned out to be quite exciting and, in the end, the short odds favourite was beaten.

I wondered whether betting markets might over-estimate the winning chances of the favourite of the 3 runners. Time for the BTC Horse Racing Stats Software! Here’s how I quickly set up a simple test strategy in the software.

1. Dashboard Page

BTC Horse Stats Dashboard

When you first login, you are taken to the Dashboard which shows the day’s meetings in UK and Ireland. I click the Strategies icon in the top right and access the Strategies Bunker.

2. Strategies Bunker

BTC Horse Stats Strategies Bunker

Click ‘New Strategy‘ in the Strategies Bunker and you can then rename it. Here I’ve called it ‘3 Runners – Lay Fav‘.

Next step is to start creating your rules to select horses

3. Horse Selection Rules

BTC Horse Stats Selection Rules

The Horse Selection Rules section may look a bit daunting at first but it really isn’t. There’s more detail below about the different parameters to create your rules (it can . For now, you can see that there are 3 rules above (Green icons):-

  • Runners – total of 3 runners only selected
  • Distance – I’ve set this so only races between 5 and 10 furlongs are selected. Reasoning being there may be more chance of a ‘surprise’ result in shorter races
  • Favourite – only the race Favourite has been selected (you can select 2nd, 3rd favourite etc if required)

Based on the 3 rules above, the stats software will identify all races with 3 runners, distance 5-10 furlong. Then it will identify the favourite in each race. Now, I’m now ready to click on ‘Next’ and set my ‘Betting Rules‘ for each selection.

4. Betting Rules

Place your bets
BTC Horse Stats Place your Bets
Place your bets options

Here we’re deciding how to place our bets on the horses which made it through our Selection Rules. Let’s break down the options – as before it may look confusing but really isn’t….

What Bet Type and Price?
  • Choose a Side. Select either a Back or Lay bet. Here I’m interested in laying the favourite as I think they may be poor value.
  • Choose a bet type. I’ve chosen to ‘Take Available Price‘ meaning the software will assume I’ve taken the current price t the point I tell it to place the bet (see next steps about timing of bets). The other 2 options are to ‘Offer‘ a price and see if it gets taken or place a ‘BSP‘ bet
  • Choose your price range. I’ve told the software I want to place a lay bet at the current price. Here I’m telling it to place at bet if the price is between a minimum of 1.2 and maximum of 2.5.
When to Place Your Bet?
  • Choose bet time. Here it gets more interesting as you can specify when you want to place your bet – anywhere from when the race Market first opened all the way through to the Race End. For this strategy I’ve just set the software to check in the 10 minutes before the Race Start.
  • Race start time to use. You can either choose the ‘Official‘ start time or the ‘Actual‘ time it started. When I’m testing a strategy I will normally use the Official start time. This is particularly because I want to model what would happen if I were to automate running the strategy. The Actual start time is only known after the event so you can’t automate based on placing a bet say 5 seconds before the race starts.
How Many Qualifiers?
  • Max Qualifiers Per Race. I’ve left this blank as I’ve selected the Favourite. However, if you create a strategy where there could be multiple qualifiers in a race, you might want to exclude any races where say there’s more than 1 qualifier. An example might be looking at Course & Distance winners….

I’ve told the software how I want to place my bets, the next question is whether I want to Close my Trades

Close your trades
BTC Horse Betting Rules Close Your Trade

I’ve left ‘Close Your Trades‘ blank as I just want the strategy to see what happens if I place a Lay bet on the selection. Closing Trades helps you model trading out and there’s more detail on the options available further below.

You’ll see the next option is ‘Build your bank‘.

Build your bank
BTC Horse Stats Build your bank
Build Your Bank options

To summarise the setting above, I’ve gone for a simple £1 Flat Stakes Lay bet with Betfair Commission set at 2%. You really should be on 2% commission with Betfair (if you’re not sure, details are on our Betting Exchanges page).

Aside from my basic £1 lay bet, you can get the software to model other options:-

  • Choose your staking plan. Rather than Flat Stakes, you can set the stake to be a %age of the Bank shown above. If so,, the Stake below becomes a % rather than £ amount.
  • Choose your stake type. Instead of placing a lay bet for a £1 stake, I could choose to lay a Set Liability. For example, I’m laying with a £5 liability and the software will adjust the stake accordingly. So, if the lay price is 1.5 then the stake will be £10.

Right, we’ve set up our Selection & Betting Rules and have just one step left. We can now specify how we want to see the results when we ‘Run the Strategy‘.

Tailor Your Results

BTC Horse Stats Tailor Your Results
Tailor Your Results options

Choose your results grouping‘. As well as Summary results for the strategy, the software all gives an initial breakdown based on a selected parameter. Here I’ve selected Race Distance to see the results for races over 5 furlong, 6 furlong etc (there’s an example below).

Select trades columns‘. The software produces detailed results for every horse selected by the strategy. You can choose which of the 71 possible data columns are shown in these results. This is particularly useful if you’re a bit of a geek like me and intend further analysis in Excel after downloading a csv file of all individual results.

The Big Reveal for my ‘3 runner, Lay the Fav’ basic strategy!

Summary Results

Stats Summary Results pt1

“It’s Profitable but won’t make you Rich in a Hurry”

The above summary stats are fairly self explanatory. Each strategy is given a rating and this one gets 3 Stars (based on the Profit Factor, Risk/Reward ratio and Expectation score). There’s a Profit of £10.97 giving a 13% Return on Investment (ROI) across 98 Trades since March 2021.

Ok, maybe I can’t retire just yet. The races aren’t frequent enough for a regular profit from them. However, there’s nothing to stop me ‘Activating’ this Strategy. Then, any 3 runner races will be included in my Daily Qualifiers alongside qualifiers from my other Activated Strategies.

Stats Summary Results pt2

The 2nd set of Summary Results are graphical. I initially didn’t pay too much attention to them and focused on the numbers in the results. However, now if I think I have a strategy worth analysing, I ensure I take a good look at the graphs.

Results breakdown

Group Breakdown by Distance
Group Breakdown

In Tailor Your Results I said I’d selected my results to be Grouped by Distance. You can see this in the Group Breakdown graphic above. The top right dropdown lets me choose to show the results grouped in any number of different ways. Depending on how you base a strategy, you might want to see the Group Breakdown by BSP, Race Type, Course, Race Type, Going etc…

Individual Trades

My next step is usually to view the Individual Trades data.

Individual Results Breakdown
Individual Trades Data

I don’t normally spend much time looking at the multiple lines. In the top right corner, there is a Download Results button which lets you create a csv file of the results. The file includes data based on the columns selected under ‘Tailor your results‘ (up to 71 columns!). There’s an example of a simple version below.

Results Example csv file
Example Strategy csv Results file

With this simple strategy, I’m only selecting 3 runner races which are pretty rare. But, if your rules select more common events you could well have ‘000s of trades and more proven results. However, it’s unlikely you’ll create a finished strategy in one hit. You will most likely want to see how you can fine tune your strategy. Maybe the initial results have too many selections or the likely longest losing streak is high.

Once you think you have a new strategy worth spending more time on, you should save your Initial Version. Then use the Strategies Bunker to create a new version. You can now start refining your Selection and Betting Rules and re-running the strategy results. You can keep multiple versions of the same base strategy to see the impact of your changes.

I’ve tried to keep this Example strategy fairly straightforward. The aim is for a balance between providing enough explain how the software works but without swamping the reader. Hopefully, that’s how it comes across but if you have any questions please feel free to get in touch.

Is BTC Horse Stats Easy to Use?

Yes, it is once you’ve spent a bit of time getting used to all the options. I hope you’ll agree if you’ve had the patience to go through the example above (Thank You!)

There is plenty of support available from the Members and BTC team. So, if you are stuck, pose a question and you’ll soon get an answer.

How Do I Avoid Back-fitting a Strategy?

When you create a strategy, there must some logic behind it. Equally, when you create your initial strategy, you need to ensure any subsequent refinement of its Rules is logical.

OK, say you create a strategy based on Course & Distance winners. The idea is that there are courses which some horses adapt to better than others, a good example being Epsom. You create and run your strategy based on races at Epsom where there is only 1 previous C&D runner in the race.

Summary Results

You set the strategy to bet £1 at BSP and your first set of results appear promising (a profit of £17.05 from 29 trades in the last 2 years).

Epsom C&D Results
Epsom C&D runners

Results Group Breakdown

Here, my next step would be to look at a Results Group Breakdown showing the results by BSP to check whether there are obvious outliers:-

Group Breakdown example

The breakdown above shows 4 runners with a BSP between 2 and 2.99 which made a loss of £1.50. At the other end, there was one previous C&D winner priced 16-17.99 which made a profit of £15.68. In the price range 7-15.99, there were 9 runners and they all lost.

There’s no pattern to the results. Therefore, my take is I wouldn’t refine the strategy further by price.

I could Back-Fit the Strategy so it excluded any horses with a price below 3 or between 7 and 15.99. The Back-Test returns would increase by £10.50 BUT what is the logic behind that?

Another key factor here is I’m only working with a total sample size of 29 trades. It’s pointless further refining a strategy when there’s such a small sample.

Ideally, I’d want a strategy sample size of 500+ but the bigger the better. It will depend on what the strategy does. If I’m looking to back at short prices, say under 3, then the results variance will be low. When backing at odds of 100+ the results variance will be way higher. Here, the possibility is much greater of back-fitting results by applying more filters.

You will naturally want to refine your strategies based on the Group Breakdown data or analysis of the Individual Trades.

In summary, each time you apply further filtering you should challenge yourself why and what logic you’re using.

Forward Testing a Trading Strategy

The old saying is “Past performance is no guarantee of future results” and this absolutely applies to Trading Strategies. There are too many moving parts. How can you possibly expect results based on horse and jockey performance to keep repeating?

So why bother, I hear you say? Well, obviously results will vary over time. However, a sound strategy with a high strike rate is more likely to maintain its performance. Compare that to a strategy based on long losing runs and the odd winner at 100/1.

Regardless of the method behind your strategy, you MUST be comfortable it’s right for you. That includes testing it out with no or very low risk before committing your hard-earned cash.

How long you forward test before committing your own cash will depend on the variance or expected strike rate. A system based on backing at low odds would require less testing that one backing at higher odds. Testing for 3+ months is common.

How you forward test your strategy will depend on how it works…

Paper Trading

A simple way to test out your new strategy is to just track how well it does without placing any bets. You make a note of the returns over a period of time and record the P&L. If the system involves backing at Betfair SP then it will be easy to get the daily results via a site like Timeform or the Betfair Daily SP Files page.

Simulation Mode

This particularly works when I have a strategy that I can automate using software like Fairbot. Most exchange trading software has a Simulation Mode where you can trade using a notional bank.

You set the software in Simulation Mode and then either trade manually or run Automation. So, this means you can track results without putting any money at risk.

Simulation is also highly recommended if you have created an Automation Strategy in Exchange Trading Software. You can make sure the automation is properly following your Trading Strategy Rules as well as tracking returns.

Betting with a very Small Bankroll

The next step may be to commit your own cash but using very small stakes. This might just mean turning off Simulation Mode in your Trading Software and setting low stakes in Automation. Alternatively, you start trading on Betfair but using the minimum £1 stake (you can go lower than £1 but it’s a bit fiddly)

Whichever route you take, the key is that you ABSOLUTELY make sure you track the results of your new Trading Strategy.

Easiest Way to Forward Test with BTC Horse Stats

Anyone signed up to the BTC Horse Stats can easily check the results for all their strategies. So, forward testing is part and parcel of the software. Having created a new strategy, you simply check the ongoing results/profit to see how the system is getting on.

Create a Strategy based on Results up to 3 months ago

This is an interesting approach suggested on the BTC Forum. One member’s approach to developing strategies involves him limiting the period over which he back-tests the results.

What he does is exclude any results from the last 3 months when he tests the strategy. When he thinks he has a viable strategy, he then effectively forward tests it by checking the results for the last 3 months. Ideally, the last 3 months’ profit continues along the same lines as that from the previous period. If so, the strategy can potentially be fast-tracked and live trading commence.

It’s a clever way of developing a trading strategy and one worth considering. However, it might not always be suitable, say if the strategy is based on only backing during the Flat turf season.

How I Use the BTC Horse Stats Software?

My Daily Routine

Unfortunately, I don’t have the time to trade my strategies manually. The good news is, I use Fairbot to automate them.

I currently have 3 Activated Strategies in the Stats Software. That means I can go see my Daily Qualifiers in the ‘Upcoming Qualifiers‘ section of the software. The layout in this section could be better but I’m not bothered.

Then, click on the Blue Download button and I then have a .csv file with Today and Tomorrow’s qualifiers.

 Upcoming Qualifiers

I use Fairbot to trade on Betfair and it includes functionality to Automate trading. I have created several Fairbot Automation ‘Strategies’ – yes, they call them strategies as well just to confuse things!

So, my Fairbot Strategies mirror my Active BTC Horse Stats Strategies. The real benefit is they allow me to leave Fairbot to follow the BTC Strategies and place bets based on trading rules.

Then, when I know the Daily Qualifiers, I go into Fairbot and select Today’s Horse Racing Card. Next, I select the races with BTC Daily Qualifiers and set the relevant Fairbot Automation Strategy to run.

That’s it! It normally takes just a few minutes and I don’t need to track any horse races during the day

Automated Daily Trading Steps
  • Download Strategy Qualifiers file previous evening / first thing
  • Open the CSV file in Excel (or Google Sheets)
  • Go into Fairbot and set up Automation for all horse races with Qualifiers. Typically takes 5 minutes
  • Check Fairbot Market Watch List at end of day to see how they performed
  • Repeat

What’s Missing in the BTC Horse Software?

Since the horse stats software was rolled out there have been regular updates to make it even better. These are split between Bug fixes and new Features. Updates are rolled out to all users and there’s a Changelog so you know what’s changed.

Any ideas to improve the software can be logged and I’ve seen a few of my thoughts turned into new Features. The BTC Team are really responsive and always looking to improve the software.

So it’s perfect then is it???

No, of course it isn’t. The features I’d like to see added/improved are:-

  • the Betfair price data is from 1 March 2021. Although that means it’s now nearing 2 years’ of data it would be good to have at least another year’s worth. Fortunately, this has been flagged and will hopefully be added soon
  • Betfair Place BSP price data is available for all races. However, the software doesn’t currently enable you to run ‘what if’ tests based on backing or laying the Place BSP. Fortunately, a change request has been raised with the BTC Team. Fortunately, the way around this is to download the Individual Trade Results and run analysis in a spreadsheet. This might not suit anyone with limited Excel or Google Sheets experience
  • No Jockey or Trainer data including whether the Jockey is a Claimer

Depending on your experience, there might be other features or data you would expect to be included. If that’s the case, please let me know.

What Alternatives are there to BTC Horse Stats Software?

There are plenty of other Horse Racing Software providers. They typically don’t do the same as BTC Horse Stats Software in letting you back-test trading strategies. Some are intended to help users narrow down the runners for the day’s racing and select winners.

I’ve listed here some other horse racing software services and I fully intend to trial some and write a review.

Free – Adrian Massey

Adrian’s site has been running for years and has data from 2003. As he says, the site contains a wealth of statistics for horse racing in the UK & Ireland. On the statistics pages, you will be able to find out:-

  • how often favourites win races
  • which jockeys and trainers are in form
  • what the draw advantage is at various race courses
  • Analysis of the outcome of Backing/Laying certain Categories of Runner
  • Analysis of Jockeys and Trainers at particular Racecourses

You can run your own queries based on many different parameters. Also, you can see how profitable backing or laying would have been at either Industry SP or BSP (Win & Place).

It doesn’t have the modelling options available in the BTC Stats Software. But, as a free resource it’s a fantastic bit of kit and I’ve been a fan and user for years.

Paid Services

How Much is BTC Horse Stats Software?

1 or 2 Day or Weekly Trials

There are 1 or 2 day or Weekly trials which give you full access to the BTC Horse Racing software. They cost £4.99, £8.99 and £19.99 respectively.

Monthly / 6-Monthly / Annual Subscriptions

These cost £49.99 per moth, £249 per 6-months and £499 Annually.

The above prices for the BTC Horse Stats but for another £10 per month you can get full access to BTC. BTC Platinum also includes full access to the Football and Tennis software.

Also, if you’re interested in Football Trading, you’ll want know that the next version of BTC Football software is on the way. This will be based on similar lines to the Horse Stats. It will include the option to model In-Play football trades and sounds very exciting!

Should I Sign Up to BTC Horse Software?

As I said at the beginning, BTC Horse Stats is not for everyone. It will appeal more to existing traders / horse racing bettors. That doesn’t mean it can’t be used profitably by others, particularly with BTC Support and the Preset Strategies.

I’m a BTC Horse Stats user and I think it’s a great tool for the Serious Trader. If you are an experienced horse racing bettor and have an enquiring mind this software may be worth giving a try.

So, if you’re interested in finding out more or signing up, consider a BTC Horse Stats Trial. You can easily take a trial for up to a week before committing to a subscription. Why not have another read of my Example strategy set up above to help prepare you for your trial.
