While no ARVers claimed a hit in either of Saturday’s Derby List Triple Crown (DLTC) Contest races, six chose horses that were in the money.  In the Blue Grass Stakes, Joanie “Hot Lips” Sullivan, Tom Atwater and T.W. Fendley used Associative Remote Viewing (ARV) to select Paddy O’Prado, which placed.  Loraine Connon chose First Dude, which showed.

In the Arkansas Derby, the day’s second DLTC race, “Horsepicker” Jim and Patsy Posey chose Dublin, which showed.

BORDERLAND DERBY

5 Storming Saint 5.60 3.60 3.20
9 Raise the Bridle   10.20 6.80
3 Amen Baby     6.60
 

Winning Outcome: E

CONGRATS to LORAINE and JOANIE for ARVing the 2nd place finisher, who crossed the wire first!

Yes, believe or not, we had another disqualification…. though this one had some less satisfying results than the Battaglia 😉

Debra, Joanie, Loraine and myself had all rated the winning photosite 3.5 or higher (Loraine made it a 5!), enough to make it an ARV prediction. However, ALL of us had ranked another photosite even higher!

In both Joanie and Loraine’s cases, that higher ranked site was none other than the horse who crossed the wire first – and was 15-1!!!!

So the decision to disqualify him was not a popular one from our point of view….

BUT we did get some DLTC contest points for finishing 2nd, plus we ONCE AGAIN have ARVed a LONGSHOT that came VERY close to winning the race!!!!

SO we are doing REALLY WELL, in my sincere opinion – THIS STUFF IS WORKING!!!!!

RAISE THE BRIDLE was taken in hand as he tried to pull to the lead going to the first turn, shared the front just outside AMEN BABY on the backstretch, was let out two wide on the second bend, had the advantage between horses leaving that turn, drifted out some under a left whip at the head of the lane, bumped hard with STORMING SAINT, continued to gradually drift, though under a hand ride, jostled with the latter most of the rest of his trip and narrowly held sway. STORMING SAINT gradually advanced between horses, was three wide leaving the second turn, bumped hard with RAISE THE BRIDLE just inside the three-sixteenths marker, jostled and gradually forced out most of the rest of the way to the wire, could not get past RAISE THE BRIDLE but was easily second best.

There was a stewards’ inquiry into the bumping through the stretch and an objection lodged by the rider of STORMING SAINT claiming interference from RAISE THE BRIDLE in the lane. After their review, the stewards disqualified RAISE THE BRIDLE and placed him second for his interference to STORMING SAINT.

It is interesting to note that many ARVers reported difficulty viewing and especially judging today’s races.

And look what happened – one race was canceled, the other two were so roughly run they resulted in the winners being disqualified!

Imagine that 😉

Week 2 Results: ARV4fun Challenge

 Derby List Contest 2010, Statistics  Comments Off on Week 2 Results: ARV4fun Challenge
Feb 032010
 

After the second week of racing in the Derby List Triple Crown Contest, ARVer Joanie “HotLips” Sullivan tied with four others for SECOND place and Tom Atwater tied for THIRD place with 10 others in the Points contest.

Here are some charts that summarize the Week 2 results of the ARV4fun Challenge:  The left side of the chart above shows the seven ARV4fun participants’ results, using Associative Remote Viewing (ARV) and no logical handicapping. (Missing chart color bars denote zero points.)

The right side of the charts are various simple statistics:

  • ARV4fun avg – Average of the seven ARV4fun participants
  • DLTC avg – Average of all 118 Derby List Triple Crown contest participants

Below are the results for the @’a (ROI) contest.  For this contest, ARV4fun participants used the same horses as predicted in the Points contest, while deciding the amount to bet based on intuition. So for ARV4fun participants, this contest is a combination of applying ARV and personal intuition.

When you take the ARV4fun Challenge, you’ll be part of a groundbreaking experiment that will help us find out what’s possible with Remote Viewing (RV).  Instead of using the intellect or the usual five senses, or even just guessing, you’ll be gathering information from distant targets using intuition to handicap horse races.      

Why do I say it’s experimental? For one thing, you’ll start using the RV protocol during Friday’s webinar after less than an hour’s training.  That’s a very brief introduction.  Heck, I’m still a newbie after taking an online course and a four-day workshop.  When the RV protocols were being developed more than thirty years ago during the Cold War, it often took years to fully train members of  a top-secret military cadre how to use RV to spy on the Russians, find hostages, locate downed planes and such.      

To be sure, what you’ll be doing with Associative Remote Viewing (ARV) is much different from the early RV protocols developed and tested at SRI (Stanford Reserach Institute) and later at Princeton University.  The fundamentals, though, are the same.  And proven.  This intuitive capability does exist, including the ability to gather information about targets that are distant in space and time, including the future.     

Which brings me to PRECOG10, the online service Marty Rosenblatt developed that automates the ARV protocol.  It provides the tools you’ll need to begin developing  your intuitive skills by handicapping horse races in the ARV4fun Challenge.   To help ease your learning experience, register now for your one month’s FREE access  (normally $100 per year) and take a look around.    

Here’s a quick overview of how you’ll use PRECOG10 to handicap horse races:    

  1. Start by going to the  New Remote Viewing Session link.  Select the radio button by the horse race.  You’ll get a page with a six-digit number at the top.  That’s your coordinate.  Be sure to hit “save” at the bottom of the page. 
  2. After you do the viewing session (you’ll learn how to do this at the webinar), return to PRECOG10.  Choose the Analyst/Judge Page and enter your six-digit coordinate.  A page with links for photosites (Choices) for each horse will appear.  
    • As you view each of the photosites (Choices) associated with your coordinate, you will enter a Confidence Ranking (CR) based on the transcript and sketch from your remote viewing session.  The page provides a link to the 0-7 Targ scale, a confidence ranking system developed by one of the first RVers, Russell Targ.
  3. After the race, Tom Atwater will e-mail you the race results with an outcome letter (A, B, C …)  that’s associated with the photosite for the winning horse.
  4. You’ll use PRECOG10’s Admin: Predictions and Actualization/Outcome section to choose the outcome letter of the winning horse’s photosite from a drop-down box under Select Actual Outcome.  The outcome letter associated with the photosite you chose earlier on the Analyst/Judge Page  is already shown on the Admin page as a prediction for that coordinate. 
  5. When you press the Save Changes button at the bottom of the Admin page, the result (Hit, Miss or Pass) will be automatically recorded in your My Stats section, which archives all the information associated with that viewing.  Tom also keeps records for the horse races separately.  (My Stats can include your predictions for the lottery and other things.) 
  6.  Marty Rosenblatt will e-mail a picture of the photosite associated with the winning horse for your Feedback session.  This is an opportunity to review the transcript of your viewing session once again.  Chances are good that now you’ll find that you “saw” more than you realized.
