cheers,

matt..
First 4 is same as a tri......except you need to pick a horse/horses to run 4th - Hence you need to pick the first 4 horses in order.

Cost = number selections for 1st x number selections for 2nd x number selections for 3rd x number selections for 4th.

e.g. ten horse field - Take:
For 1st select 1,2,3
For 2nd select 1,2,3,4,5
For 3rd select Field (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)
For 4th select Field (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)

3 x 4 x 8 x 7 = $672 for $1 unit ($336 for 50c unit) or for a $20 flexi bet (NSW TAB) you would get 2.97% of the 1st 4 dividend and oly cost you $20 not $672 !!

All in bet ? not sure what you mean is this the same as an all-up (VIC) ?

Parlay........ I ain't gunna explain this one (my fingers are getting sore as it is) - sorry mate I'm sure someone else will explain it...

Hope this helps! ?
