The idea is to give yourself a chance to win if you are very right in five ( or even four ) legs.

Okay, that number helps regarding establishing number of backups to construct.
I don't play P6, but like to play with ticket construction and see how I would have done (not well).
I end up thinking, "I'm fairly solid with this, but I think I"ll make one C backup singling that 15-1 with my A's just in case - but better include those 2 B's" - and then I look at my ticket construction grid, and I've got 15 tickets going before I know it ....
It's most difficult balancing the funds invested related to the risk of return - my tendency is to say, "what the hell, it's too confusing", and go back to combining everything onto less tickets. Then you lose the financial advantage of spreading most investment over likely, not less likely, horses.
Time to re-read Christs' book ....
