Racing Alpha MCP server

GB & Irish horse racing signals for AI agents — the official Model Context Protocol server from Racing Alpha.

Remote server (Streamable HTTP, no install):

https://racingalpha.co.uk/api/mcp

Listed on the official MCP Registry as uk.co.racingalpha/signals.

Connect

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http racing-alpha https://racingalpha.co.uk/api/mcp

Generic MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "racing-alpha": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://racingalpha.co.uk/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Works keyless (50 requests/day per IP). A free key raises that to 1,000/day — get one at racingalpha.co.uk/developers and pass it as Authorization: Bearer ra_live_….

Stdio-only client? Use the bundled zero-dependency bridge:

npx github:qtexuk/racing-alpha-mcp
# or with a key:
RACING_ALPHA_API_KEY=ra_live_… npx github:qtexuk/racing-alpha-mcp

Or via Docker:

docker build -t racing-alpha-mcp . && docker run -i racing-alpha-mcp

Tools

Tool	What it returns
get_today_races	Today's GB & IRE races with Racing Alpha's published model picks (advised prices database-frozen at publication)
get_race_signals	Per-runner AI scores (0–100), de-overrounded fair prices, value vs fair, plus the race's draw-bias verdict
get_tips_ledger	The public tips ledger — every pick frozen at publication with result, level-stakes P/L, and closing-line-value summary. Losses included; that is the point.
get_draw_bias	3-year draw-bias aggregates (IV / A–E / PRB) by course, surface, and distance band
get_combo_stats	Trainer×jockey strike rates over settled races

What this is (and isn't)

Everything served is a Racing Alpha computation — model scores, de-overrounded consensus prices, statistical aggregates, and our own published tips record. It is not a raw racecards/odds/ratings feed.

The differentiator: every prediction Racing Alpha publishes is database-frozen at publication with a public audit table. Agents can verify the full track record — including losing runs — before trusting a single signal, via get_tips_ledger or racingalpha.co.uk/performance.
