Thank you.
Got anything like that for fast prices?
Emphasis on sites that refresh prices quickly.

RDSS has an API to Equibase for fast Charts (pull only) so when the host track propagates results to them, I can pull too.
Aside from that (and not necessarily any slower), I also do a Results pull from TwinSpires on a 10 second increment refresh starting about 2 minutes after the Official OFF signal until the Results data fetched indicates 'populated' (i.e. I got the quick Results and Mutuel prices). Also, if I'm watching live video and see the Official Results broadcast, usually within a few seconds, a manual refresh on TwinSpires' Results API populates RDSS' database, screens, models, etc. About the same time as the roll-over to the next race live odds.
The same turnaround for Results applies to AmWager's Results API (just not
all tracks, due to CDI track content restrictions).
Usually, full Result Charts follow from Equibase/TrackMaster within about 20 minutes of Official status.
Hope that's helpful Dave!
