Strange Apple Seedling

?As I have commented before I am growing some apples from seed. This is mostly for my own interest. I know I am very unlikely to get a good eating apple, but I'm an optimist.  Attached is a picture of a very strange little seedling. It came up with four cotyledon leaves instead of the usual two. Can anyone tell me what a seedling triploid looks like ? Whatever it is I intend growing it on, if it will, to satisfy my curiosity.
