I came up with this for a 4 horse place parlay.

I'm just not about how to cover the 4 horses in trebles. I don't they are the right combination.

AB.............AB............AB............ABCDE
___________________________________________$20

AB.............AB............CDE..........AB
___________________________________________$12

AB.............CDE..........AB............AB
___________________________________________$12

CDE...........AB............AB.............AB

it is not a single bet, but 4 seperate bets. I assume you understand that A & B are the first and 2nd selections. On the first quadrella bet, you have your best two selections for the first leg, second leg and third leg, and then your top 5 selns for the 4th leg. Then change it slightly each bet, so that you cover all combinations, if you think you can pick a winner out of two horses, in 3 races, and a winner out of 3 for the fourth
