The downloading is easy (if you are a registered member), but the installation might be a little tricky. The INSTALL.BAT file was designed for Windows 95/98. The best method is to go to the command prompt (Win 2000 and later). Create a directory (folder); e.g. C:\BRIGHTH3. You can do that in Windows Explorer as well. Download BRIGHT3.EXE to C:\BRIGHTH3. Click on BRIGHTH3.EXE to decompress the file automatically. Read the READMEH3.TXT file. For the best results, work at the command prompt in C:\BRIGHTH3. Type H to start. You might want to preserve your less potent PickH32.EXE installation.

Start by creating a trfiecta data file (name it something like DATA-H3). My horseracing trifectas software requires that the data (results) files for horse-betting have exactly 3 horse numbers on each line; the numbers are separated by blank space(s) or commas.

The programs in BRIGHTH3.EXE require trifecta data files of at least 100,000 (one hundred thousand) lines. Of course, you don't have that many real horse races results! So, you create an additional file of randomly generated straight trifectas combinations. The additional file is usually named SIM-H3 and is created in seconds by the 'Utilities' function (application name: Util-H32.EXE). The 'Utilities' function also creates the DH3 file: The final file used by the report generator and the horse trifecta combination generators.

Next, you need create the reports: The WH + MH3 files. Function name: 'Generate WH Reports' (press function key F5). You analyze the W and MH reports in order to establish filters for future drawings. This represents the biggest headache for yours truly. People want gazillions of details on how to pick the filters (creating the strategies). I would need to live one hundred lives to satisfy just one user of my horseracing and lottery software! I can only advise: READ, READ, AND THEN READ SOME MORE! There is a lot of information right here, at this website. A very good starting point:

When you came up with a strategy (a group of filter settings), you can check how that particular strategy fared in the past. That is, you can see how many times the strategy had hit in previous horse races. Your strategy checking is more successful if you generate the WH and MH reports for 1000 horse races. Press the F3 function key to run the 'Strategy Checking' function.

You use the strategy to generate straight trifectas combinations. You can generate trifectas even without checking for strategies first. You just type the filter values at the screen prompts. The function keys F6 and F7 start the combination generators. The first one generates combinations in lexicographical order. The F7 key generates straight trifectas in optimized random order.

The combination generators have a multitude of functions:
~ purge trifecta combinations from an output file (previously generated horse combinations);
~ generate trifectas based on favorite horse numbers;
~ the user can enable or disable the new type of inner filters.

The 'Check strategy hits' (F4) is a great application. It will tell you how many combinations a particular horse racing strategy would have generated in situations of past hits.

The following is the right sequence in order to check the strategies and strategy hits.

1) You generate first the WH and MH reports (function key F5);
2) Next, check for a strategy (function key F3); it creates very important files (STH3.000, STH3.HIT and STH3.REP);
3) Then, run 'Strategy hits' (function key F4) for the files created at step 2. The procedure also updates STH3.REP (open it and look for the info at the bottom of the report).

In order to achieve accuracy, you must use the same DH3 file, the same WH and MH reports, the same strategy file, the same strategy report, and the same STH3.HIT file. Thus, any time the DH3 file changes, the reports must be done again for the updated DH3 trifectas data file.

Just one of my (many!) secrets. I found a very useful form of strategizing: Reverse strategy. I look at those filter settings in the W report files that show skips above the median. The chance is very good the strategies won't hit the next draw. So, I add them to the LIE files. The LIE files contain combinations with unlikely probability to hit. Well, everything is turned upside down — that's why I named this method 'reverse strategy'.

I wrote in more detail about 'reverse strategy':

Lotto, Lottery Strategy in Reverse: Not-to-Win Leads to Not-to-Lose.

You will be up and running with these awfully powerful programs in a short time. Then, you will — and will need — spend time on looking for strategies. You must start with this mindset: I am the only one who can find good strategies for myself. After a while, you'll realize it is pretty stupid to share your strategies with others, especially playing the same games as you! I did such a costly mistake with my horse racing strategies! Somehow, I made similar mistakes with horse racing long-shot trifectas. I don't want competitors for the same prize! The prizes go down, while I am left with just cursing! Now, we will have different results because of different simulated files and different strategies.

There is an issue with the filter ION3, the maximum level. The problem occurs only in the random generating programs (function keys F7 and F8). There is no programming bug or error. It is related to the compiler (PBCC). The same filter runs as normally in MDIEditor And Lotto WE. For now, my advice to you is to leave alone the maximum value of the ION3 filter (the one based on the Fadic addition).

Best of luck!
