The Sudbury Downs race office has announced that due to a lack of entries for this Sunday afternoon's program, the entry box will remain open until Wednesday morning (May 29) at 10:00.
In addition, Sudbury also reports that entries for 2013 Baby To Boomer Stake closes midnight Friday, May 31.

Nomination forms are available on the sudburydowns.com website.
