I guess as-of Thu there were 8 'programmed'. Just doesn't say 'at what point' fewer than six. I know there were 4 scratches that reduced field to 4 but at what time(s) were they official?
So we're not gonna offer show wagering because there is a minimum and that would cause a negative pool and gasp, a loss of money for DM. But super? Well we get a big takeout there so c'mon in!
I get they fig the payout to $1 which looks like it came in at 5.10 but the charts sure are funny showing 10 cent payout at 51 cents. Tho I guess the more I think about it 4-1 is doable, just silly for a super.

In 1972 Hollywood Park made the Convenience-Typecast match race an exacta race with a higher takeout. And people bet it.
