Well, basically, I write them in order of preference, but I also divide them into winning chances and place chances.

Take Race 7 at Cranbourne yesterday: CRAN R7 - 3 O'CANARVASS & 5 HELIUM (3,5,8,7 - 1,9)

What this means is that I think numbers 3 & 5 are the best winning chances in the race, numbers 8 & 7 are also winning chances but perhaps more likely to place, and numbers 1 & 9 are really just a place chance.

Now, everybody has different $ amounts that they're comfortable spending, so that's why I never tell people how they should bet on any of the selections. In previous days, my multi tips weren't going very well, because roughies have been getting up for 3rd that I haven't included, and if you had gone with a 2x4xfield trifecta, you would have gone okay. In that Cranbourne race, I was confident about O'Canarvass and Helium, so I ended up going with a 2x6x6 trifecta and a 2x4x6x6 first4.
