    Not exactly the most profitable way to punt so be warned....
    It depends on how many horses you have that you want to do the trebles with. Essentially if you for example pick out 6 horses it is covering every possible treble that can be placed with these six horses. There are 20 cross trebles for 6 selections so if your stake was 1euro the bet would cost 20. 10 for 5, 4 for 4 etc..

    Don't do these bets myself but your probably better off just sticking with lucky 15's or Yankees or whatever the rest of them are called.

    I do these manually sometimes..as Kiers mentioned don't get sucked into them too much but they an be very profitable if you carefully select them.
    I had a very profitable run of form last year carefully selecting what I thought were bankers at nice prices (not selecting short price bankers)
    For example captain Chris, silviniaco conti and I think it was shooters wood.
    I covered the treble with another treble with for non stop in the race.
    I did some over Cheltenham but lost because of dynaste .
    All high enough profile horses tht you have reasonable form to go on.
    When I had a decent strike rate at it I went off the rails a bit and started included low rated bankers in sedgefield for example and my strategy went to sh*t.
    But do them carefully and they can work out nicely.
    Just missed out on one today aswell, had nadiya de la vega, theatrical star and djakadam. I think 10euro would have returned about 900
