    I noticed Geoff Banks tweeted that some starting prices are now industry SP rather than determined by bookmakers at the track. I knew industry SP is used when there aren’t on-course bookmakers but this is the first time I’ve heard about it replacing on-course SP.

    Possibly this development is related to the fact that on-course bookmakers now rarely offer 1/4 odds first four on 16 runner handicaps, whereas shops do. Hence a need to adjust the on-course odds.

    Does anyone know any more about this development?
