Help Racing post or other website

[Michael231]

Morning All and thanks for looking.
Can anyone tell me if there is a way that I can download or scrape from a website at the moment I'm on the racing post.
The days or individual races with the race card customised settings that I have on there.
They are, Race conditions, form, comments, RTF%, price history, betting forecast and show prices.
As when I try to copy and paste it all goes down in A column only.
I know it's a long shot but you never know there may be a website I don't know of that does this.
Any help appreciated.

Michael

If you are a member of the Racing Post you can download the races you require as a pdf.

Pro card + settings - You open up the race you need > Crtl+P (print) and save.

Example 5:23 Pontefract.

Thanks TheBluesBrother
Will look into that, though money tight at the moment so will see what I can afford.

You only need the essential package, I can see all this on my mobile.

I copy any At A Glance card I need from the Post and paste it into my Excel race analysis book. From whatever I have copied and pasted, the data that I use appears in the sheet titled Selected horses as per columns A to N of the attached. I think potentially anything from an At A Glance card could be put into the same sheet, but of course the card as downloaded is as it comes in the Post, with no customised aspects. It is free.
