API reference / Racing Archive

GET /v1/racing/closing-lines/coverage

What the closing-line archive actually holds

The archive's own measurements of itself — depth, date floor, how much of it is a genuine closing line, how much has a result, and how many rows carry a contamination flag. Results are collected for Australian and New Zealand racing only, from `results_from` onward. Races in other countries appear in the archive because an Australian book priced them, and they carry closing prices but never a finish position. So `resulted_races_pct` is the share of the WHOLE archive with a result, while `settleable_races` / `settleable_resulted_pct` count only AU and NZ races that started after results collection began — the figure to read if you intend to settle against the archive. `by_category` carries `resulted_races` per code for the same reason. This exists so nobody has to take a marketing number on trust before paying for a bulk pull. Every figure is computed from the table at request time. Same plan gate as the archive itself, and the numbers describe the whole archive.
