Hi I am looking for a web scraper software which can scrape the results page of [login to view URL] on a daily basis. Page like this: [login to view URL] Then the software needs to filter out only those horses which are running on AW (all weather) and sprint races (5f, 6f, 7f) with 7 or more runners. It then needs to look at the lengths beaten statistic (just under the finishing positions) and select any horses that have beaten other horses by more than 2 2 1/2 lengths. These horses then need to be output to a dated text file with the course and class of race they competed in. That's it. Thanks.

Hello, I am confident that I can create a Perl script (programming language for processing web pages, amongst other tasks) to access this data from that website. Perl and these modules for accessing websites are all public domain tools. Could you please show me an example of a horse that the script should select? The script can be programmed to access all data and then it is only a question of interpretting it. A IDLER
