Don't forget about changes in Jug conditions

Don't forget about the changes to the 2010 Little Brown Jug when making your stake payments.

 

Remember that last fall, the Little Brown Jug Society Directors voted at their annual meeting to restructure the splitting of the Little Brown Jug eliminations. With the change, race officials will be able to be much more flexible in splitting the race into eliminations. In a situation like the one that occurred in 2009, when there were 19 horses entered, the officials will be able to split the race into three eliminations of six, six and seven rather than the ten and nine horse fields that the officials had to do last year.

 

Sustaining payments for many of  the 2010 Delaware, Ohio Grand Circuit stakes races are due February 15.  These are for foals of 2007. All payments must be made to: Tom Wright, PO Box 1560, Powell, OH 43065.
