In horse racing, a "trifecta" is a type of bet. It is usually one of the best pay-outs since it is difficult to win. To win a "trifecta" bet, you need to choose which horses will finish in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd positions correctly. Note: you must choose all 3 horses correctly and in the right finishing order to win and you cannot choose the same horse for more than one position (ie. no repetition). If only four horses enter the race, what is the probability you will win the trifecta? (round your answer to 3 decimal places if necessary)​
