The official draw was completed today, and a very small field was set for the 2007 Little Brown Jug at the Delaware County Fair in Delaware, Ohio.
Only 16 were drawn into the event, leaving bettors with 2 8-horse qualifying fields for the main event. The Little Brown Jug is ultra-competitive, as the top 4 from each qualifying field will advance to the final. In the final, if the winner has not won a qualifying event, then the three remaining winners will face off in an additional final, with the winner being crowned the Jug winner.
The link (http://racing.ustrotting.com/card_entries.cfm?track_code=DELA&race_date=2007-09-20&race_type=9) will take you to the list of entries for the 2 races (tried to copy/paste but wasn't looking good. It is pretty obvious that the first race is quite tough as the two top earners, Tell All and Southwind Lynx will face off, while the early favorite, Always A Virgin, has a lighter crowd in the second qualifier, but again, the opening races are only qualifiers for the main event.
Hope to see a few DT'ers at the Delaware County Fair this week...
