00 THEY HAVE A SECRET?
DISCLAIMER All infonnation in this book is based upon the original research and observations of Dr. Alan Richter. It is written with sin cere and reliable intent. Although these methods and techniques have proved reliable over the years, there can not be, and therefore is no guarantee that these same methods will continue to work in the future. Therefore, neither the pub lisher, the editor, the author, nor any other persons connected with the writing of this book assume any responsibility what soever for the results of any reader's activities at the races. 1st printing:
Have you ever noticed that some people, who come to the racetrack only on their birthdays or their lucky days, do as well or better than the profess ionals, who come each day? Why is this true? Do they have a secret? Why do certain horses win the same key race year after year, especially at the smaller tracks? Do horses win on their birthdays? Do horses have "off days," when we should not bet them? Can we predict these off day perform ances? These and other questions form the basis for this book on astro handi capping.

To better understand this book, you should acquaint yourself with the following basic astrological principles: The year is divided into twelve
signs or astro months. These are
Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo,
Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius,
Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.
The month of Aries begins at the spring equinox, first day of spring. This is usually on March 20, but it can be March 21. You would have to check an Ephemeris to be exact, as it varies -1
slightly from year to year. The month of Taurus begins on April 19 or 20. In this manner, each astrological month roughly compares with the traditional calendar month, Aries is April, Taurus is May, Gemini ~s June, etc., but the' astrological month begins approximately ten days before the traditional calen dar month, and that is the major stumb ling block for those who do not know astrology. The basis of the calendar is that the earth revolves around the sun in a circle, which is divided into 360 0 and into twelve parts or astrological months. Because of the way that trad itional astrology developed, prior to the science of astronomy, astrologers name the months after the sign occupied by the sun if viewed from the earth, rather than naming the months after the sign occupied by the earth as it trav els around the sun. If we were to rename the months, based upon earth's location if viewed from the sun (heliocentric astrology), there would be a lot of confusion for centuries as we would then say that the earth is in Libra (not Aries) in April. So, I favor keeping the names as they are and explaining what is really happen ing scientifically. The earth revolves around the sun and the sun is in Aries in April. -2
The moon revolves around the earth and its path can also be divided into twelve parts, the same twelve signs. So, the moon goes from Aries to Taurus to Gemini, etc., and when it reaches Pisces, the next sign will be Aries. The moon spends roughly two and one-half days in each sign, which means that the moon either spends two nights and three days (Monday, Monday night, Tuesday, Tuesday night, Wednesday) or three nights and two days (Sunday night, Monday, Monday night, Tuesday, Tuesday night) in each sign. The moon takes 27.32 days to make one complete revol ution around the earth. For practical For practical purposes, this means that if you go to the racetrack on a particular Saturday and win, you could or might win again if you returned on a Saturday four weeks later. Conversely, if you win on Saturday and try to repeat your win seven days later, you will prob ably lose. This is because the moon is in the same sign four weeks apart, but it is in a different sign one week apart. I am going to omit any discussion of the planets and the other details of astrology, and we will be concentrating on the moon, the astro month (based upon the sun-earth axis or relationship), and the relationship or angle between the moon and the sun. Consider the New Moon, when the three bodies (sun, moon, earth) are in -3
WINNING METHODS a straight line and in that order, sun moon-earth. The sun is lighting up the part of the moon that we do not see, so the moon is invisible to us on earth. In contrast, at the Full Moon, the order is sun-earth-mooh, and except during eclipses, the earth is not large enough to hide the fully lighted moon.

New Moons are approximately 29-30 days apart, and likewise, Full Moons are 29-30 days apart. This is a different cycle from the moon-in-the-sign cycle, which is 27-28 days. The reason that these cycles are not the same length has to be explained: Suppose, we start with the New Moon in Pisces. Twenty-eight days later, the moon will again be in Pisces, but the sun will now be in the next sign Aries. We are at the position of new moon minus one (NM-1), which is my symbol for one sign before the new moon, not one day before. In order to reach the next new moon in Aries, we have to allow thirty days. -4
Now, what does all this have to do with horses? If a horse has a preference for a particular moon sign, then a pattern should appear, where that horse tends to win every twenty-eight days or four weeks apart. La Shard was a perfect example. He won an allowance race at Great Falls, Montana on July 14, 1991 on the moon in Virgo. On August 11, 1991, twenty-eight days later, he carne in second by a nose in an allowance race at Metrapark, Mon tana. On September 8, 1991, which was fifty-six days (eight weeks) from the date of the first race and twenty-eight days from the second race date, he won an allowance race at Metrapark, on the moon in Virgo. On October 5, 1991, eighty-three days from the first date, fifty-five days from the second date, and twenty-seven days from the third date, La Shard won a handicap race at Playfair, Washington, again on the moon in Virgo. Thus, La Shard performed four times in a row on the moon in Virgo, each time dis tance between performances being four weeks apart. Of course, La Shard was a very sharp horse in 1991 at age five, and he also won on September 15, 1991, which was not on the moon in Virgo. So, one could argue that La Shard simply won every race in 1991 regardless of when it was sched uled. I do not subscribe to that view, since La Shard was defeated by both Gotto Go Charlie and Santim on August 2, 1991. (Santim was the horse that La Shard al most beat on August II.) -5
We cannot do an experiment to find out, but I believe that had the races been scheduled differently, La Shard would have won fewer races. He "lucked out," because the races happened to be scheduled on his favorite moon sign Virg~ La Shard was a son of North Jet and I am currently doing research to follow the sons of North Jet. The main problem with this technique is that we do not learn the moon prefer ence of the horse until it has produced a race record and is ready to retire. Also most horses do not have such clean moon preferences as La Shard. Incidentally, horses whose names begin with the word "the" do tend to win on the moon in Virgo and "la" in French means "the." "Les," the plural form of "la," works also. Another pattern that I study is the tendency of a horse to win races on the same date, year after year. This pattern is stronger in the smaller tracks. There are examples of champions winning the same race year after year, but it is difficult for them to do so because of the principle that youth prevails. There is always some· up-and-coming younger horse who wins the race. We can, however, make use of breeding lines to benefit from these patterns. For example, the period July 15-17 is extremely favorable to the Raise A Native breeding line as shown by the following examples. On July 17, 1963, Raise A Native set a new track record for 5~ furlongs. On the same date in 1994, Highland Crystal by Raise A Man won the River Downs Budweiser Breeders -6
Cup. On July 15, 1995, Pembroke by Gone West, a son of Mr. Prospector out of the same line, set a world record for 5~ fur longs on the turf at Hollywood. On July 15-16, 1995, three Chisos horses won at Yakima Meadows, paying $94.80, $11.20, and $35.60. Chisos is a son of Alydar, who is a son of Raise A Native. Obviously, if those three Chisos horses had been racing well in the weeks prior to mid-July, they would not have been paying such huge amounts for a two dollar bet. So, some thing is happening with the Raise A Native Mr. Prospector and the Raise A Native Alydar line in mid-July. Saratoga is famous for many upsets. Is this because of the track or is this because of the specific dates that Saratoga races? The Breeders Cup Day is always held
in the month of Scorpio. Is Danzig really
the best sire or is he the best sire in
the month of Scorpio? Would it all look
different if the best horses were judged
in the month of Leo instead of in the
months of Taurus and scorpio as they are
now?
We have discussed horses that win races on the same day one year apart and horses that win races on the same moon sign twenty-eight days apart. What is the relationship between these two phenomena? If we divide the year, 365.25 days, by the length of a lunar revolution, 27.32
-7
days, the result is 13 and 1/3 revolution •• In other words, if we go forward one year in time, we do not come back to the start ing moon sign. In order to come back to the same moon sign, we need to travel thir teen lunar revolutions (less than a full year) or fourteen lunar revolutions (more than a full year). So if a horse has a specific moon preference, it might be more likely to win 355 days from the previous win than 365. A common pattern is for the horse to win its "Never won three" one year from the maiden win. However, this is not nec essarily a good bet. We do not know until after the race is over if this was a good horse that won its NW3 a year after the maiden as good horses should or if it was a bad horse that did not. In my experience, the shortyear is more valuable than the conventional year, because we know from the previous win (a short year ago) that the horse does like a particular moon sign. Specific examples of patterns that relate to specific time distances as used in astrology are shown in Figures 1 through 8 and in Figures 10 and 11. SEXTILES AND TRINES In astrology, the distances of two
months (sextile) and four months (trine)
are considered to be benefic, agreeable,
harmonious. In degrees of the 360 0
circle, these are 60 0 angles and 120 0
angles.
In horse racing, we can go back eight months to the time that would be consider ed a trine if we had gone four months for ward. (I label this "octatrine" to indic ate that it was eight months ago and not four months ago.) Similarly, I label the period ten months ago "decasextile," mean ing a time period that is sextile to today, but occurred ten months ago, not two months ago. Horses who won 59-60 days ago should win today because today's sun-moon angle is the same as the angle 59-60 days ago. The moons are sextile and the suns are sextile. An example is the following: Today is the New Moon in Pisces. 59-60 days ago was the New Moon in Capricorn. 118-120 days ago was the New Moon in Scorpio. In order to understand the agreements, it is necessary to know the elements of the signs. A

Signs Aries Taurus Gemini Cancer Leo Virgo Libra Scorpio Sagittarius Capricorn Aquarius Pisces
Elements Fire Earth Air Water Fire Earth Air Water Fire Earth Air Water
-9 -8
The alternating list of signs, beginning with Aries and including all fire and air signs, is labelled the set of A signs. The remaining list of signs, beginning with Tau rus and including all earth and water signs, is labelled the ~ set of signs. Fire and air signs differ by two signs, are sextile, and agree. Fire signs differ from fire signs by four signs, are harmonious and trine. Thus, the New Moon in Capricorn 59-60 days ago is sextile to today's situation of the New Moon in Pisces. The New Moon in Scorpio is trine to today's situation of the New Moon in Pisces.
BACK TO HORSES We would bet the horse today that won a sextile ago on the New Moon in Capricorn and a trine ago on the New Moon in Scorpio. If Horse A won on the' New Moon in Scorpio and Horse B won on the New Moon in Capricorn, neither raced on the other date and they never raced against each other, we might then have to use nonastrological criteria to decide today's winner. We could elim inate horses that failed on these "New Moons in T," but we would not know what to do with a horse that didn't happen to be scheduled on the critical dates.
on a case of intermediate complexity. Using the list of signs with the ele ments, practice some combinations like the following example. The moon in Gemini in the month of Aries is the New Moon in Aries + two moon signs. It is trine to the moon in Libra in the month of Leo. The moon in Libra in the month of Leo is the New Moon in Leo + two moon signs. Do not proceed until you have mastered this and similar combinations. Try some combinations on your own. Now let us consider a more compli cated example of the case of Sea Hero that won the Kentucky Derby on May 1, 1993 on the astrological aspect, Moon in Virgo trine the Sun in Taurus (Full Moon Scorpio/Taurus minus two signs). We go back approximately eight months to the angle octatrine, when the Moon was in Capricorn trine the Sun in Virgo (Full Moon Pisces/Virgo minus two signs). Notice the trine relationships of all the entities involved and the angle is preserved. on both dates the moon was in the position FM-2. Sea Hero won the maiden on moon in earth trine sun in earth on the FM-2 position, and he won the Kentucky Derby on moon in earth trine the sun in earth on the FM-2 position. Figure 11 gives a second example of the angle octatrine. Figure 12 lists the time distances for the sextiles and trines.
Before we consider Sea Hero, which may be a little complicated for those who do not know astrology, let us practice -10

Karandy won the maiden May 27, 1993. She won the third race of her career on May 25, 1994. Notice that she did not go into a restricted race for "Never won three. n The win on April 28 shows that she could handle the rise into the unrestricted conditions and the win on May 27, 1993 set her up for the completed anniversary. She won May 25, 1994 at 5.1:1, and was favored on June 17, 1994, when she failed. Karandy can be said to possess an anniversary on .May 25-27. Whether she will ever win again on that date is questionable.

Dag's Knight won the maiden August 12, 1994 on the Scorpio/Leo First Quarter Moon. He won the third race of his career on August 4, 1995 on the exact same aspect, scorpio/Leo First Quarter Moon 357 days later. This is a very common pattern. Notice that in this case the shortyear from the maiden pattern was more powerful than first and second time lasix, but that is not always so. Notice also that Dag's Knight is 3 for 3 in the month of Leo. To find the shortyear from today going back less than a year, you add 8,9.• 10 or 11 days.

A bracket is two wins in a row approximately a year ago with today's data between the two dates. Kyle's Ace won July 30 and August 12, 1994. Today' s date is August 5, 1995. Although Kyle's Ace won the NW2 (Non-winners of two) and the NW3 (Non-winners of three) at the inferior track, today's race at Yakima Meadows is for non-winners at the stand, so today's race repres ents a very low class race. Those people who make use of the false theory of a "Horse for a course" will avoid Kyle's Ace, because he won those races at Playfair and this is Yakima, but I prefer the concept of a horse for a time. In my view, Kyle's Ace likes all the days between July 30 and August 12. His win on August 5 at 4.4: 1 proved that he likes this time period.

Figure 4, Santa Fe Slewpy Example of 13 lunar revolutions, not a shortyear Santa Fe Slewpy won the race first time at Yakima Meadows, off the layoff, on July 17,' 1995. He won his maiden at Del Mar on July 27, 1994, 355 days ago (355 divided by 27.5 = 13 LRs). Or, this is 365 days less 10. Now, because the first win was in the month of Leo . and the second win was in the month of Cancer, this is not a shortyear, where the sun is in
the same sign at both dates by definition.

Both of Santa Fe Slewpy's wins were on the moon in Aries. I would continue to bet him on the moon in Aries, especially in the sum mer months, but he could also win at other times. Note that Santa Fe Slewpy did not possess the Best Beyer figure at the dis tance, but he did possess the best Beyer figure at the distance on cycle. This means that Santa Fe Slewpy possessed the highest Beyer figure of all horses in the race for all dates when the moon was in Aries.

WORKOUTS:
sextile 2 R, where 2 R is shorthand for 2 lunar revolutions. Each horse won his race on February 26, 1995, but Occasionally Lucky won the higher class race or Occasionally Lucky won his race with a higher Beyer figure B81 compared to B70 for Mr. Investigator. This example may not be the best example because Occasionally Lucky is clearly the superior horse based on Beyer figures alone, without considering cycles.

Three Sees in the Wind This is an example of the longyear return 14 lunar revolutions or 382 days. ,In different years, the horse won the first two races of its career on the
exact same astrological aspect, the moon in Gemini trine the sun in Aquarius.
Notice, Pat Day, the Libra jockey, was on the horse on roth occasions. The
moon in Gemini trine the sun in Aquarius favors the Libra j~key. In 1986,
Pat Day won six races on this aspect on February 17, 1986.

To find the longyear from today going back more than a year, subtract
17,18,19, or 20 days.
