Source for "forecast_price" and "forecast_price_decimal"

Question

Hi,

I have a question about daily_runners. 

Where do the fields forecast_price and forecast_price_decimal come from? Are these from an external source, or something that Betwise calculates? How good are these estimates? 

Thanks!

Answer 1

These are external "tissue" prices compiled the day before racing by our raw data providers and are the same estimates as you will see carried in most newspapers and other online publications.  They are useful estimates.   You can easily compare these prices with SP in order to judge more accurately.
