Race Numbers/Race Viewer

Post by T.D. Palm »

When looking at my entries for tonite I can't find a race number. Without that I wont be able to use Race Viewer to see my horses run. Does anyone else have this problem ?

I'm using an old computer; my laptop crashed. Maybe there's something I have to download; but me ,being computer illiterate cannot figure it out. Anyone ?

T.D.,

Where are you looking? If you go to Entries/Results (to get to the My Races page) and click on a date (tonight), here is the order of information:

Antonia Bayle Year 36 Week 1 (Mon 8pm) Middleground Park Race 16 - 1 1/8 miles. Dirt. Thoroughbred. 3 year olds. Fillies. Maiden Special Weight. Purse $15,000 (10 points) 12/12 entries - Race Full Jockey: Nathan Williams

So:

Horse Name - Today's Date - Post Time - Track - RACE NUMBER - Distance - Surface - Breed etc etc etc.

To use the viewer, don't you just click on the TV icon? No need to know the RaceID.

It's OK, I figured out how to get it now. The number only shows up on my toolbar.
I don't know, maybe it was always like this; its just with this old computer things just look & feel a lot different.

And to answer Admin's question. The race viewer icon only shows up when the race has been completed & I wanted to watch the race before I knew the results.
Anyway, its a moot point now. I'm good to go.

If you want to use the Race Viewer before you see the results:

Go to an older race, click on the TV screen.
In another window, open the race that runs tonight. Look at the URL (web address) bar. You should see something like this:

Code: Select all

http://www.simhorseracing.com/race.php?RaceID=368078
Copy the RaceID number from the new race.
Paste that number in the first window, in the place of that RaceID:

Code: Select all

http://www.simhorseracing.com/raceviewer.php?RaceID=368078
Yes?

OR
Open the race that you want to see. In the URL bar, type "viewer" between "race" and ".php?". Then press enter to reload the page.

or write all the your horses and track/race #s down and the search for complete races by track, put your hand or a piece of paper over the left side of your screen where the horse names appear, and then click the tv icon without clicking on view results. Then enjoy

Apologies:
Between not having viewed a race in 2 weeks & having to use an old computer with an old version of Windows. I wasn't sure if I was using the correct "site" to find the race i.d. Now, it's all coming back to me.
