The Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper
(C)1987,1989 By Leonard Hyre and Michael J. Himowitz
Distributed by Federal Hill Software
8134 Scotts Level Road
Baltimore, Md. 21208
The Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper is a powerful,
sophisticated tool that will allow you to handicap Greyhound races
quickly and easily. It's not a magic, get-rich-quick scheme. But
if you follow these instructions, impose some discipline and use
the handicapper wisely, you should be able to improve your
performance at the track and make money in the process.
The Cambridge Handicapper is easy to use. All the information
you need is available in the race track program, which is usually
available the day before the race. With a little practice, you'll
be able to handicap a race in a few minutes and a whole card in
less than an hour.
About the Program and User-Supported Software
This is a proven handicapper. Federal Hill Software has been
marketing Greyhound, Thoroughbred and Harness programs
commercially for a variety of computers since 1983. You may have
seen our advertisements in magazines such as Compute!, Compute's
Gazette, Computer Shopper, RUN, PCResource, Rainbow, PCM and
others.
We have sold thousands of copies. The problem is that
advertising rates--the largest single cost of doing business--have
skyrocketed in the last two years. Eventually we decided that it
was just too expensive to market special interest programs such as
handicappers in general-interest computer magazines.
So we did two things.
First, we rewrote the handicappers from top to bottom, making
them more attractive, quicker and even easier to use with
full-screen data entry, on-line help, and revised rating formulas
that reflect our most recent research.
Second, we decided to put working versions of the IBM
handicappers directly in the hands of the people who want them.
This is known as user-supported software. If you like the program
and use it, we ask that you send us a $30 registration fee. This
is $20 less than the previous selling price.
For your money you'll get an Enhanced version of the program
with additional features that will make your handicapping even
easier and more exciting--including the WAGERMASTER betting
analysis program. We'll talk more about the enhanced version at
the end of these instructions.
The User-Supported version you have here is in no way
crippled. Some shareware companies do this as a come-on, but we
don't think that's fair. This User-Supported version uses exactly
the same handicapping forumlas as our enhanced version and
produces the same results. You may use it and distribute it to
anyone. Give it away, post it on your local computer bulletin
boards, or put in in your user-group library. There are only a few
conditions. They are:
1. The Cambridge Handicappers are copyrighted by the authors
and remain their intellectual property, protected by U.S. and
international copyright laws.
2. You may not distribute a modified version of the
User-Supported program or any version of the Enhanced program.
3. When you distribute the User Supported version, you must
include ALL the files on this disk (or in the group of files which
you un-ARCed). The program won't work properly unless they're all
there.
Enough of that. Let's get on with the program itself.
System Requirements
The Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper will run on any
IBM-compatible computer with 256K of memory and a video display
adapter that emulates the IBM Color Graphics Adapter, IBM
Monochrome Graphics Adapter or the Hercules Monochrome Graphics
Adapter. That means just about everything on the market today,
including all models of the Tandy 1000, 1200, 3000 and 4000 with
sufficient memory.
There are a few computers with which the program is not
compatible. They include the Tandy 2000 and unmodified Sanyo 550
series (although they should work on Sanyos that have
IBM-compatible graphics adapters). If you have one of these
non-IBM compatible MS-DOS computers, we do have an earlier version
of the program which will run on them. Contact us for information.
The Files on this Disk
The Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper is composed of five
files. All of these files must be on the disk from which the
program is launched or the hard disk directory from which the
program is launched. They are as follows:
HOUNDS.BAT The batch file that starts the program.
NHOUND1.EXE The handicapper program.
NHOUND1.PAK The screen files used by the program.
SPEEDSCR.COM A memory resident screen driver.
HOUNDS.DOC Instructions for the use of the program.
If these files are on a floppy disk, that's all you'll need
to run the program. If you want to use a hard disk, set up a
directory for the program and use the DOS "Copy" command to
transfer all the files on this disk to the directory you have set
up for it.
Running the Program
To run The Cambridge Greyhound handicapper, put the disk with
the program in Drive A or use the "CHDIR" command to switch to the
hard disk directory in which the programs are stored.
Type HOUNDS and hit the <RETURN> key. This will load the
Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper - 2
program.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LAUNCH NHOUND1.EXE directly. Use the
HOUNDS.BAT file to do it. Here's why:
HOUNDS.BAT first loads SPEEDSCR.COM, a memory resident
program which manages the screens used by the Cambridge
Thoroughbred Handicapper. Without SPEEDSCR, the program will not
work. The HOUNDS.BAT file also removes SPEEDSCR from memory when
you terminate the handicapper program. While SPEEDSCR probably
won't cause difficulties if left in memory after you exit from the
handicapper, it can, under some circumstances, produce some
unusual if harmless results. So always start the program by typing
HOUNDS and hitting the RETURN key.
When you type HOUNDS and hit <RETURN>, your disk drive will
whir for a few seconds. Then you'll see a message asking if you
have a color monitor. If you do, type "Y" and the display will
change to color. If you don't have a color monitor, type "N" and
the program will run in monochrome mode.
At this point, you'll see a title screen followed by a
message explaining the handicapper's shareware status. (We've
removed that message from the enhanced version). A few seconds
later, the MAIN MENU will appear. Before you start handicapping,
however, please read the following sections that describe
handicapping systems and the information you'll need to use the
Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper.

============================================
About Handicapping Systems
============================================
A handicapping system does two things.
First, it attempts to predict a dog's peformance in an
upcoming race by analyzing past performances in a consistent,
scientific manner.
Second, it provides you with a strategy for betting on races
given the outcome of your handicapping analysis.
As strange as it sounds, the true purpose of a handicapping
system is not to pick winners. The purpose of a handicapping
system is to give you a tool that will help you make money at the
track. Knowing how and when to bet is just as important as
analyzing the dogs.
There are as many handicapping systems as there are
handicappers. Some are quite good, others are worthless. Some
require hours or days of effort, some require only a few minutes
of preparation.
You don't really need a computer to handicap a race. There
are plenty of manual handicapping systems around, and some are
excellent. Unfortunately, they're often tedious and
time-consuming. A computer handicapping system takes the
handicapper's knowledge, sets up handicapping tables and rules
internally, and then makes calculations instantly.
We designed the Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper to provide a
blend of sophistication and ease of use for the race fan who
enjoys the sport but doesn't have hours and hours to devote to
handicapping. If you've never tried to handicap a race before,
you'll find this quite easy to use. If you're an experienced
handicapper, the information the system requires you to collect
will be just as useful as the ratings themselves. The program will
sharpen your own thinking and handicapping analysis.
============================================
The Information You Need
And Where to Get It
============================================
To use The Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper, you must be
familiar with the information available to you in track program.
The program is always available on the day of a race and usually
the day before.
The program contains two different pieces of information
you'll need. First, there's the "condition line," a table of of
information that shows the distance and class of each race and
provides information about about each dog's performance in the
last six to eight races. Second, the program contains a listing of
kennels and how much money each kennel has won.
Here is the information you'll need about each dog:
1. The dog's box, or post position. This is the position
relative to the rail from which the dog will start the race. The
Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper - 4
No. 1 dog will start next to the rail. The higher the number, the
further from the rail the dog will start. Most Greyhound races are
limited to eight dogs.
2. The date of the dog's last race on a fast ("ft") or sloppy
("sy") track. We will use sloppy tracks for rating purposes, since
they don't seem to affect dogs' times, but it's not a good idea to
bet on races being run on a sloppy track. We're interested in this
because dogs running after a layoff of three weeks or more can be
difficult to handicap.
3. The class of this race and the dog's previous races.
Classes vary from state to state, but generally they run from
"AA," which is the highest class, to "E," which is the lowest
class. A class of "M" indicates a Maiden race, which means none of
the dogs running in that race has ever won.
4. The dog's time in his last race at same distance he's
running tonight. This time is expressed in seconds and hundredths.
For most races, the time will be in the 28 to 34 second range,
although marathons can go as high as 50 seconds.
5. The dog's position going into the first turn in his last
four races. This is important because a dog that gets out in front
early displays good strength and maneuverability. Also,
statistics show that dogs who consistently get to the first turn
at the front of the pack have a better chance of winning than dogs
who have to come from behind.
6. Significant comments: These short comments show how the
dog ran each of his previous races. We are specifically interested
in comments indicating that the dog ran either WIDE/OUTSIDE or
went for the RAIL/INSIDE. This is important when compared to the
box from which the dog is starting, because a dog who likes to run
inside will do well if he's got an inside box but may be in
trouble if he's drawn an outside starting position, and vice
versa.
7. Was the dog a beaten favorite? This determines whether the
dog was the favorite last time out on a fast or sloppy track and
whether or not he won the race. If the dog was the favorite, an
asterisk (*) will appear next to the dollar odds on the dog in the
line containing the information for the dog's last race. This is
important because a favorite who was beaten last time out will
often win this time around.
8. The record of the dog's kennel. We want to know whether
the kennel is in the top four moneywinners at the track.

============================================
Handicapping Principles
============================================
A computer can help you with handicapping calculations, but
there's no substitute for a little human judgment in the process.
The key to handicapping is knowing which races to bet (not every
race can be properly handicapped) and which dogs to eliminate from
contention before you start handicapping.
When to Bet on a Race
For any handicapping system to work, there must be a good
probability that the past performances of the dogs involved will
be reflected in their performance in the race you're handicapping.
Unfortunately, this isn't the case in every race. At the very best
tracks, almost every non-maiden race may be handicappable. At
tracks with lower-class dogs, you may only find five or six races
on a card that lend themselves to analysis. Here are the
guidelines we use:
* Don't bother going to the track and using this program if
the track condition is not "fast." An off track--good, muddy, or
sloppy--should be avoided. There's a good reason for this. Dogs
usually run on fast tracks. They train on fast tracks. While some
dogs may be good "mudders," there's no real way of knowing how
they'll respond to bad track conditions. Some dogs may love soft
footing, others may hate it. The problem is that there's no way to
tell for sure. So stay away from off tracks.
* DON'T BET ON MAIDEN RACES. These are unproven or just plain
bad dogs, and most handicapping techniques are useless when
they're running.
* Dont bet on races featuring the cheapest dogs on the
grounds. These are old, bad or tired dogs who are unpredictale.
They may run well one week and terribly the next. If you can't
count on a dog's past performance to be indicative of his
performance today, you can't handicap the dog.
These dogs usually show up in the first and last races of a
card, particularly at tracks where the overall quality of dogs is
not high. At the very best tracks, this rule may not apply, since
even the cheapest dogs could be feature race material at lesser
tracks. As a general rule, avoid handicapping class "D" races if
you can and forget entirely about "E" races.
* Don't bet on races with a high proportion of "shippers." A
shipper is a dog running at a track for the first time. You have
no way of knowing how a dog will respond to a new surface. If you
run across a race in which a shipper looks like a real contender,
our advice is to pass it up. This takes some discipline, but
you'll be better off for it. Also, any race with three or more
shippers is probably a bad bet. We realize that this will
eliminate many stakes races with high purses. While these are fun
to watch, they're not usually good handicapping propositions. You
can take consolation in the fact that the other races on the same
card with a high-purse stakes race are likely to be good ones.

Eliminate Bad dogs
Once you have decided whether to bet a race, you can easily
eliminate certain dogs from contention. These will usually be
eliminated by the computer, but occasionally a really bad dog will
score highly. Take a few seconds to eliminate these first and the
system will work much better. Only at the very best tracks will
you have to handicap more than a half-dozen dogs in a race.
* Eliminate any dog which has not raced in the last three
weeks. You have no way of knowing why this dog has been on
vacation, but if an animal is running well, the trainer will race
him regularly. Time off is usually a bad sign. This may not apply
to the absolutely best-quality stakes dogs, who race less
frequently, but stakes races are bad bets anyway.
* Eliminate any dog who did not show a strong performance
last time out. By this we mean a win, place or show, or setting
the early pace as the leader in fairly quick time. If a dog showed
none of these, forget him.
* Eliminate "shippers." These are dogs running at a track for
the first time. Once again, this may not be possible in big stakes
races, but we think these are difficult to handicap anyway and
should be avoided.

============================================
Using the Program
============================================
When you run the Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper, you'll see
a menu with four choices. The choices are:
1. Handicap a dog
2. About the Enhanced Handicapper
3. Registration Form
4. Quit the Program
To select any choice, just type the number opposite that
choice. We'll discuss handicapping first.
============================================
1. Handicap a dog
============================================
When you choose this item, you'll be presented with a
handicapping form with blank, highlighted fields for the
information the program needs to analyze the dog. This is just
like filling in a paper form.
When you're through entering information in any field, just
press the <RETURN> or <ENTER> key to go onto the next field. Some
fields require single keystroke entries (Such as a "Y" for yes or
"N" for no). In this case, just typing the appropriate letter will
send you to the next field.
You can correct information in any field by using the right
and left cursor keys and typing over the previously entered
information. The BACKSPACE key will move the cursor one character
to the left without deleting. To delete material, use the DEL key.
You can move backwards and forwards from field to field
throughout the form by using the UP and DOWN cursor keys. When you
reach the bottom field, the DOWN cursor key will cycle you back to
the first field.
Most fields in the form are checked for errors. If you have
typed inappropriate information in a field, the program will
return your cursor to the field with the bad information and
display an error message at the bottom of the screen telling you
what the problem is.
As you go from field to field, the program will display a
"Help" message in the box at the lower left hand side of the form
telling you exactly what information is required for that field.
When you have finished entering all the information in a
form, you can exit from the form and get your handicapping
calculations by hitting the <ESC> key.
Here's the information required for each field:
Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper - 8
1. Dog No. and Name: Type the dog's betting number, followed
by a space and his name. Then hit <RETURN>.
2. Time: This is dog's final time in his last race at the
dis1ance being run tonight. Enter the time in seconds and
hundredths, i.e., 31.24 or 30.49
3. Highest class in which this dog has raced: Look at the
entries for each of the six or eight races listed for this dog.
Find the highest class of race in which he has raced. Some track
programs refer to this as the GRADE of the race. Then look at the
HELP box on the screen. You will see the following table of
classes:
1> AA 3> B 5> D 7> M (Maiden)
2> A 4> C 6> E
Type the NUMBER opposite the letter representing the highest
class in which the dog has raced. For example, if the dog's
highest listed race was a Class B race, type 3. Classes vary from
state to state. Assume that Class AA represents the highest class
in your state.
4. Class of this race: Using the same table as in (3) above,
type the number opposite the letter which represents the class of
this race and type it in the appropriate box. The class of the
race is a large letter at the very top of the page listing for
each race. Some tracks refer to this as the GRADE of the race.
5. Box: Enter the number of the box from which the dog is
racing today. This is the large number at the extreme left hand
side of the entry for each dog.
6. Inside comments: Look at the listing of comments for each
of the dog's last SIX races. Count the number of times the words
INSIDE or RAIL appear. Type the number in this box. Do not count
comments that say FORCED INSIDE or BUMPED INSIDE.
7. Outside comments: Look at the listing of comments for each
of the dog's last SIX races. Count the number of times the words
OUTSIDE OR WIDE appear. Type the number in this box. Do not count
comments that say FORCED OUTSIDE, FORCED WIDE, BUMPED OUTSIDE or
BUMPED WIDE.
8. Turn position last four races: Look at the column labeled
"1/8" for the dog's last FOUR races. This shows where the dog was
running as the pack entered the first turn. For each of these
races, type the appropriate position number in the appropriate
box.
9. Beaten favorite last time?: If the dog was the favorite
last time out on a fast or sloppy track but did NOT win the race,
type "Y" here. You can tell if a dog was the favorite because
there will usually be an asterisk (*) next to the column showing
the dollar odds on the dog for that race.
Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper - 9
10. Top Kennel: Check the track program and find the listing
of kennels and their records. If the this dog's kennel is in the
top four, type "Y". If it isn't in the top four, type "N".
Once you have entered all the information in the form (It
takes longer to read about it than to do it), and you're sure it's
correct, hit the <ESC> key.
The program will ask you, "Are you through with this dog
(Y/N)." If the information is correct, type "Y". If it isn't
correct, type "N" and you will be returned to the form, where you
can correct the bad entry or entries.
Once you have indicated that the information is correct, the
numeric score of the dog will be displayed in the "Help window."
The score will generally be a number between 80 and 200, although
the best or worst dogs could go higher or lower.
The program will then ask, "Do you want to handicap another
dog? (Y/N)." If you want to handicap another dog, type "Y" and a
new handicapping screen will be displayed. If you're finished
handicapping, type "N" and you'll be returned to the Main Menu.
Now What Do I Do?
To analyze a race, handicap each dog. When you're through with
each dog, write down the dog's name, number and score (The
Enhanced version takes care of all this for you). When you're
through, you'll have a list of dogs and numeric scores.
THE HIGHER A DOG'S SCORE COMPARED TO THE OTHERS IN THE RACE,
THE MORE LIKELY THAT dog IS TO WIN THE RACE.
For example, suppose these were the dogs and scores:
No. Name Score
4 Paula's Dream 144
2 Big Bad Ike 142
5 BennyBear 136
7 Mom's Mink 122
8 Bag o' Bones 116
6 Glue Factory 102
In this case, the handicapper indicates that Paula's Dream is
most likely to win the race, although Big Bad Ike is quite close.
Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper - 10
============================================
How to Bet
============================================
OUR RECOMMENDATION IS TO BET THE HIGHEST RATED DOG (the one
with the highest score) TO WIN AND PLACE. This is the safest wager
and the one most likely to put money in your pocket over the long
run.
As usual, there are exceptions to this rule. For example, in
the race above, suppose Paula's Dream is going off at less than
even money, but Big Bad Ike is going off at 4-1. You're not going
to make much if you bet on Paula's Dream, but Big Bad Ike is so
close in the scoring that he becomes a better bet.
IF THE TOP TWO DOGS ARE ONLY A FEW POINTS APART AND THE SECOND
RATED DOG IS GOING OFF AT MUCH BETTER ODDS, YOU MAY WANT TO BET
THE SECOND-RANKED DOG.
This is one of the Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper's major
strengths. Because it rates dogs without regard to local betting
habits or prejudices, it will often spot undervalued dogs that
make sound wagers.
Finally, at some tracks our customers have reported better
results by betting both the first and second-rated dogs to win.
This is particularly true if the handicapper ranks them closely,
neither is a strong favorite and the odds on both are relatively
good.
Determining how all of this works at your track takes some
trial and error. Before you plunk down your money for the first
time, handicap a couple of cards and see how the program works at
your track. Wagering patterns vary greatly from locality to
locality. Knowing when and how to bet is just as important as
selecting the right dog. It can make the difference between
winning and losing money at the track.
You'll notice we haven't mentioned exotic wagers, such as
exactas, perfectas, triples and trifectas. That's because we don't
believe in them as a sound wagering strategy. Without going into
long explanations, just remember that it's tough enough to pick a
winner in a race, let alone a winner and two particular losers.
Tracks make a lot of their money from exotic wagers because the
return to the bettors is much lower than it is on straight bets.
We can virtually guarantee that you'll lose money on any strategy
that involves exotic bets. Stay away from them.
That's all you really need to know to get started. Obviously,
familiarity with your track conditions will help. But even if
you're new to dog racing, the Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper will
make race analysis easier and more accurate. Remember that the
most important factor in any handicapping system is discipline and
consistency. If you choose your races wisely, apply the rules
we've laid down and overcome the fan's natural tendency to put
down money on every contest, you'll be able to turn a profit on
your hobby.

=======================================================
2. About the Enhanced Greyhound Handicapper
=======================================================
Menu Choice 2 will show you a screen containing information
about the Enhanced version of this handicapping program, which
will be sent to you when you send in your registration fee. We
think this represents an oustanding buy, and we'll discuss some of
the advanced version's additional features here:
* The WAGERMASTER--This alone could be worth the price of
registration. It will show you anticipated payoffs for a wide
variety of odds and win/place/show bets. It's great for developing
a wagering strategy or just plain "whatiffing." In addition, The
WAGERMASTER will show you the conbinations and permutations of
bets on various dogs for daily double, exacta/perfecta and
triple/trifecta type wagers. (We don't recommend exotic wagers,
but we know you all love them, so we'll at least make sure you get
the combinations right).
* Handicap an entire race at once. You'll be able to input
data for all the dogs in a race (up to 16) at one time and see a
screen or printed report, sorted by score from most likely winner
to least-likely winner. See the sample report at the end of this
section.
* Keep track of shippers and last race date. While this
doesn't effect the handicapping outcome, it will show you how many
shippers are in a race, how long it has been since each dog last
raced and how many dogs have had layoffs of three weeks or more.
Having this information can help you alter your betting strategy
or pass up a bad race that you might otherwise have wasted money
on.
* Enhanced documentation. The instructions with the enhanced
version contain all the information you see here, plus a detailed
discussion of parimutuel betting that will eliminate much of the
mystery and hopefully make you a wiser bettor.
Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper - 12
=======================================================
3. Registration Form
=======================================================
This will make it even easier to register your program. When
you choose No. 3 from the Main Menu, you'll be presented with a
handicapper registration form. When you're finished filling out
the form, you can print it out on your printer. This form is good
for the Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper, Thoroughbred Handicapper
and Harness Handicapper. You can register one or more programs at
the same time. The registration fees are as follows:
1 Handicapper $30
Any 2 handicappers $50
All 3 handicappers $70
When you mail the form to us with your registration fee (We
also accept VISA and MasterCard), we'll ship you the enhanced
version(s) right away. Here's how to fill out the form:
Name and address fields: Type your full name on the first
line and hit <RETURN>. Type your street address on the second and
third lines (you can skip the third line if you only have a
one-line address). The City, State and Zip Code go in separate
blanks on the fourth line. You can use the <RETURN> and CURSOR
keys to move from field to field the same way as you do in the
handicapper data entry form.
Type of Payment: If you're paying by check or money order,
type a "Y" in the "Check/money order" box. If you're paying by
credit card, type a "Y" in the Credit Card Box.
Credit Card information: If you're paying by credit card,
type a "V" or "M" for Visa or MasterCard in the box labeled "Type
of Card." Then type your credit card number and expiration date in
the following blanks.
Handicappers registered: Type a "Y" in the appropriate blank
for each handicapper you want to register, Thoroughbred, Harness
or Greyhound.
When you're through entering the registration information,
hit the <ESC> key. You'll be asked if the information is correct.
If it is, type "Y". If the information is not correct, type "N"
and you'll be returned to the data entry screen.
Once you have confirmed that the information is correct,
you'll be asked if you want to print out the registration form. If
you do, type "Y". You'll be prompted to make sure your printer is
on line and then strike any key to print the registration form.
If you don't want to print out the form, type "N" and you'll
be returned to the Main Menu.
Send the completed form with your registration fee to
Federal Hill Software, 8134 Scotts Level Road, Baltimore, Md.

Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper - 13
you're using a credit card. A registration form is also included
at the end of these instructions.
=======================================================
Program Notes
=======================================================
The Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper was written and compiled
using Borland International's Turbo Basic (TM). We chose Turbo
Basic because it writes to the screen more quickly and produces
more compact code than other Basic compilers.
The data entry screens were created using the Screen Sculptor
(TM) and SpeedScreen (TM) utilities from the Software Bottling
Company of New York. The SPEEDSCR.COM file distributed with this
program is licenced from and copyrighted by The Software Bottling
Co. and may not be used with any other program.
The Registered Version of The Cambridge Greyhound Handicapper
is guaranteed to load and run as indicated in the accompanying
instructions. No other warranties of any kind are made or implied,
and Federal Hill Software will not be responsible for any damage
or loss resulting from the use of any of its programs.
