Racecard Runner Backfill
Runs an active foreign-key repair — not just a passive check — across
racecard_runner only (~31M rows, split out of
Racecard Backfill so it can run on its own). For every row, this recomputes what each FK
(race_id, course_id, runner_id,
jockey_id, trainer_id) should actually resolve to from the
current source row and its existing parent mappings, and corrects the
column if it disagrees. It only updates existing rows — a parent with
no mapping yet is left alone and counted as unresolvable, never created. This is the
opposite of
Backfill Reference Tables and
unlike Backfill Everything
(which never touches an FK/id column at all) — this page's whole purpose is fixing FKs,
plus an ordinary value-diff refresh of every other mapped column on the same rows in the
same pass.
By default a run covers rows with race_date on or after
the latest 7 days; untick the box below for a full run over all
dates. This page has no schedule of its own; the scheduled Racecard Backfill run still covers racecard_runner. A
racecard_race parent that's itself outside the run's date range is left unresolved.

Preview runs the exact same reads and resolves the exact same expected values, but skips every write — no FK repointed, no value columns refreshed. Use it to see what would change before committing to a real run.
