1. 1

   Thoroughbred Engine

   Odds 4/6 fav

2. 2

   Photo Finish

   Odds 5/2

   A management workstation in the browser for accounts, groups, symbols, routing and reports, laid out like the property sheets your dealing desk already knows by heart.

   Saddlebag

   A client portal for registration, wallets, deposits, withdrawals and documents, so your clients can do their own paperwork.

6. 6

   Every Last Penny

   Money is kept to the hundred-millionth and rounded once, at the end. Every ledger adds up exactly, and a split never mislays a fraction of a cent.

   Odds 6/1

7. 7

   Open Gate

   A documented JSON-RPC API that only ever grows, so an integration you build this season still runs, and still means the same thing, the next.

   Form 1112

   Odds 8/1

8. 8

   Long Memory

   An elephant’s memory in a horse’s body. Every message the platform exchanges is recorded and no history is ever overwritten, so you can always see what happened and when.

   Odds 10/1

Non-runners

• Manual Dealing Withdrawn. The rules decide every request, so nobody has to.
• Zero Means Unlimited Scratched. A setting that is off says off, and zero is just zero.
• Thirty-Two Bit Retired to stud after a long career of bumping into memory limits.
