Unhappy Hot Starts - Holley Carb???

I’ve got a Holley HP Pro – no choke and mechanical secondaries. On cold starts, couple of pumps and it always fires right up. Never a problem. Once hot, I can always restart with no problem if the car only sits for 5 or 10 minuets. If it sits much longer, I have to crank it for quite a while before it fires, and always has a strong smell of gas. I never pump the accelerator on hot starts. Any thoughts on what’s going on here and what the cure might be?
