    I backed 6 horses today in different races. None won, but 5 were 2nd or 3rd one fell. From an accumulator point of view what would have been the best option here? Is there such thing as a place acumulator? If so whats it called? Thanks

    Yes, group 'place only' bets into an acca - but all those listed must place.

    If you want the type of bet where if you hit with some but not all then better off looking at doubles, trebs, quads etc from 6 - can get expensive.

    Googel 'each way accumulator'. Most of the betting sites are blocked in work so I can't go in them. But there's a few explaining it at the top of the google search.

    Ah yes, if you're looking for some returns it'd be yankees etc. but as said above it's a lot of bets.

    There generally is a plaxe accumaltor Your alternative is a Lucky 63, a lot more expensive than an accumulator but you need just one result for a return I tend to avoid accumalators becaus if one bet fails it all fails.

    Another idea may be to use the W/O market, e.g. I can still avail of 3pl in tomorrow's 13:30 Chelt, regardless of what AS does.

    You can also form a (type of) accumulator from e.g. 'five from seven' (e/w).

    Essentially it's just a five-fold, comprised of 21bets, but if any of the five places it's profit.
    If they all win, even on the lowest possible stake, it could likely exceed their max daily payout.
