Thats the fact, and it also explains why the Churchill HC had more in it than the Woodford. By that point of the day, you're at a 30 minute line, and many people are putting in all their bets through the Derby, which slows it further. Add to that the fact that most of the tellers are one day temps, you'd never get out of there if people start wheeling a ton of combos on supers. It's hard enough to get an Exacta ticket correct.
