Really? Name 'quite a few'... The Swept Overboards and Aldebarrans of this event ALWAYS struggle.
Elmhurst and Lit de Justice are the only Sprint winners who came from anywhere further back than 5th after 2nd call in recent memory.
If you're not in the first 5 in the Sprint by the half mile mark, you're DONE.
