That being said, the prices of my horses were $9, $16.80, $2.70. If I wanted to play a ticket that was 2x3x2, the parlay would have cost $12 correct? and I would have gotten back $51.03 per $1??
I don't have the opportunity of parlays at Arlington so this was the first experience with them. Given that a pick three wasn't offered, this would have been a decent substitute, I wish I would have thought of it because I got knocked out of the final leg of the pick four....I played the pick four three times at $24 so I would have had the above win parlay 6-10 times if I could have played it.
Let me know if this math was correct.

Correct.
And I feel your pain on the P4 thing, I've asked NYRA to add a P3 starting in that leg because the last leg is usually some bad NYB maidens or something crappy and they said "it would cannibalize the P4 pool" (of course, you can start a P3 OR P4 in the 2nd race every day...)
