Hi Ken, I create the list from each race I find on the website I'm scraping: http://odds.bestbetting.com/horse-racing/today What I might do is fetch the site with a modifier that I've discovered will give me the races in the order that I want. i.e. http://odds.bestbetting.com/horse-racing/2010-03-05/byTime Thanks for the reply.
