Isn't this typically designed for 2-3 mile turf racing that you see in England?

How can you process a realtime 6F market in a minute and 10 seconds?

It can sometimes take 10-20 seconds to confirm an on line wager on a good day as it is...I can see a bunch of people getting stuck with 20-30 seconds remaining in a race while whales get bets covered and shut out the rest.

I hope they bring it here for all of your sakes, but I don't want any part of it - way to subjective with an easy excuse for my tastes.

Doesn't have to be In-Race. Exchanges I used to use was Off at the Break. I used Netbetx sometime back

Agree with most of this. I'd be interested in prerace exchange wagering but the in-race stuff sounds like a giant clusterf*ck waiting to happen for an industry that can't even close betting at the right time.
