Sorry to hear that,
Su is ruler of 2nd house, it reffers to what we eat.

Bad luck on that one, PA. I've edited my December post to include the results. No winners there either but a small profit on each-way bets.

Moon in Cancer applying trine Jupiter in Pisces this afternoon and I fancy Sea Venture in the 3.40 at Musselburgh. It is currently 2nd Fav at 5/1.

Hi Goca,

maybe my memory fails me, but I think I remember that you mentioned on this forum, or maybe on an other forum, that there is a method concerning horse races, in which the basis of the prediction is the planetary day and hour.

If you do know this method, would you tell me about it? How it is done?

For a few weeks, I've been making short notes about winning horses of those periods when the planetary day and hour is the same. Like today Mercury / Mercury. I can't see any clear pattern yet.

Yes, that is Coley's method upon questin like: will "my horse"(the one whom do you think will win) win?
Cast the chart and locate the Lord of the Hour.
If it is in:
1st house, horse you asked about will win.
in 3rd, 10th or 11th it will be second
in 7th not first not last
in 4th last

Sea Venture came 6th out of 12

Thx Goca, one more question though

is this chart based on my location and on the moment when I'm asking the question?

Yes it is.

Thanks Goca!!!

Hi Taurean,

How are you getting on with your investigations into same day and hour-ruler? I was looking at the first race at Huntingdon today and noticed that the chart has Jupiter as both day and hour-ruler. Although I'd picked out Dawn At Sea (for Venus into Pisces), there's a horse called Immense on the racecard. Sounds good for Jupiter, but is that the way it works?

Hi Ficina,

sorry I?m late with my answer, although Immense finished 2nd (with the odds of 7/1) so you were already on the right track!

Well, I?m not sure it even works. OK, seriously. I made notes of about 70 races. The way I see it, this info should only be used as an auxiliary info (or complementary, I?m not sure which is the right word here). Just like in case of football! In some cases, it looked like the day / hour ruler might have helped the corresponding team (Liverpool-Reading). But, in other cases, it didn?t (Algeria-Ivory coast).

I examined whether the percentage of fave winnings is the same or not. I mean, what if with e.g. Jupiter or the Moon, almost every fave wins, and with Saturn, only 60%. But without much success! These percentages are quite similar, and, what the bigger problem is, the 70 race is way too few to analyze percentages.

According the my notes, it even happened that a horse, which was fave, and the name or color association was OK with the day / hour ruler, was beaten by many, or fell.

Nevertheless, I do believe that the opposite happens much more frequently! (Actually Jupiter may be involved in the success of Immense as well.) So if you find a horse, who is fave, and the day / hour ruler supports it, maybe you can bet on it. I do know that the odds of faves can be very small, and it?s no use to bet on 1,05-like odds, but sometimes you can find bigger ones.

I was successful on Sunday, it was a Southwell race, day / hour Sun, and the fave was named Premium charge. Premium -> Sun, charge -> Mars was in the 1st house. PC has won and the odds was 3,35.

Yes, Immense did well. Although it didn't win, it would have been worth an each-way bet.

it even happened that a horse, which was fave, and the name or color association was OK with the day / hour ruler, was beaten by many, or fell.

I wonder if it works best when the planet is in a good condition, as Jupiter is at the moment. Have you found that makes any difference?

Well done with Premium Charge. Nice one!
