Pompano Beach, FL — Bookend carryovers highlight the Wednesday (May 17) program at Pompano Park.

With a pair of longshots bookending last Sunday night’s Pick-5, nary a single ticket had the winning 3-5-5-6-7 combination, resulting in a carryover of $3,157 going into tonight’s program.

Also, the Super Hi-5, conducted on the final race, has a carryover of $24,791 coming into the midweek card.

The highly competitive nine-race program features a $10,000 Open Handicap Trot with Boli in the spotlight seeking his fourth straight win. The talented 5-year-old son of Kadabra will have the driving services of Hall of Famer Wally Hennessey and will have to overcome the outside nine post to extend his streak.

The $8,500 Open 2 Handicap Pace for mares also features a field of nine with an evenly matched field including the top five finishers from last week’s event, Spilling The Beans, Goldstar Rockette, Sue’s Night Out, Machin Marley and Metro Glide.

Post time for the Wednesday night card is 7:20 p.m.
