The 5 Tattersalls datasets might not contain data for the sale you would like, so I have included a function to collect new data from the Tattersalls site. The function is a little crude, but the format of data appears to be in the same format for each sale, so hopefully it will work as desired (if you encounter issues let me know). Sales can be chosen from the dropdown menu on this page.

Usage

collect_tatts_sales(url, sale_name = "")

Arguments

param details
url the url of the sale
sale_name optional, name of the sale, useful to include if combining with other datasets

Example Use

Collect data for “October 2003 Book 1”, the url http://db.tattersalls.com/4DCGI/Entry/List?30%096%09=%20OC1%2003%09by8

oct_bk1 <- collect_tatts_sales(url = "http://db.tattersalls.com/4DCGI/Entry/List?30%096%09=%20OC1%2003%09by8",
                               sale_name = "oct_bk1")
