The June 4 program made it a wrap for Monday evening live harness racing programs for the 2011-2012 season at The Isle Casino Racing Pompano Park. Live racing action will now be conducted every Wednesday and Saturday at 7:05 p.m. Eastern through the conclusion of the current meet on July 28.
Trackside reporter and host Gigi Diaz has joined forces with Racebook Manager David Crupi and videographer Steven Ruiz for a trifecta of zany commercials to humorously emphasize the scheduling change at the South Florida plant.
In the search box on www.youtube.com , enter "Pompano Park Is Dropping Mondays" and access to the trio of commercials will appear. Support cameo appearances in the ads are made by Pompano Associate Judge and Simulcasting Manager Aaron Feinberg along with track announcer Frank Salive.
Redemption Time For Bombilla Hanover
After burning her backers at 1-9 last week when making a break in stride due to a tropical rainstorm, Bombilla Hanover redeemed herself at even money in the $8,500 Isle Mile Mares Open Handicap Pace feature on the Monday evening, June 4 program.
After Major Trap was sent to the lead by Andy Santeramo to post the front quarter in 27.3, Bruce Ranger had Bombilla Hanover up on the move to seize the lead and make a torrid pace the balance of the way in 56.1 and 1:23.1 leading to the win time of 1:52.2. Nillabomb sat third in line throughout with Dan Clements in the bike and brushed up to take the place position from Major Trap.
Peter Blood of Pompano Beach, FL is a co-owner and the trainer of Bombilla Hanover, who will surpass $100,000 in career earnings with her next paycheque. Ownership shares of the 4 year old daughter of The Panderosa-Bet Me Hanover are also held by Rick Berks of Boca Raton, FL and Lew Whitaker of Schnecksville, PA.
Post time is 7:05 p.m. Eastern every Wednesday and Saturday through the conclusion of the current Pompano live meet on July 28. Free race night live streaming, handicapping selections by Hall Of Famer John Berry, and much more is available in the 'racing' tab at www.theislepompanopark.com .
