Jumps horse racing

This is one of the 8 racing game types the API serves. One integration covers all of them. The response shape does not change between game types.

Quick start

Authenticate with the X-API-Key header. List game types with /game-types, then filter events with the game_type_id and status parameters.

curl -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY" \
  "https://virtuals-api.sportlogic.io/api/v1/events?status=scheduled"

Sample event response

GET /api/v1/events/{id} returns the event and every runner with draw number, win and place odds, and form. Odds are decimal.

Results and settlement

When the event finishes, GET /api/v1/events/{id}/results returns the finishing order plus win, place, forecast and tricast settlement. You can grade bets straight from this response.

Cache responses while you build

The free plan includes 500 requests a day. That covers a full day of building if you cache. Store each response by event id and read from the cache instead of calling the API again for the same data. Fetch the schedule on a timer, not on every render. A settled result never changes, so you can cache results forever.

const cache = new Map();

async function getEvent(id) {
  if (!cache.has(id)) {
    const res = await fetch(`${BASE}/events/${id}`, { headers });
    cache.set(id, await res.json());
  }
  return cache.get(id);
}
