### get_racecards

Returns all UK and Irish racecards for a given date. Each race includes meeting venue, going, surface, race time, race name, distance, class, and a full list of runners with horse name, trainer, jockey, odds, weight, draw, and official rating. Makes one request per race to fetch full runner details, so response time scales with the number of races on the card (typically 20-30 races per day).

**Estimated cost:** Metered
