Opening Little Brown Jug future odds announced

Return Home
July 22, 2008 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Wagering on the first of three Little Brown Jug future wagering pools will get underway at noon Thursday at racetracks across North America and internet sites. Future wagering will be offered through 11:30 p.m. Sunday, July 27.

North America Cup winner and Meadowlands Pace runner-up Somebeachsomewhere (3-1) is the morning line favorite in the future Jug pool.  Trainer and co-owner Brent McGrath said at a  Meadowlands press conference on July 15, “I love the Little Brown Jug, but I don’t plan on racing Somebeachsomewhere there because of the possibility of having to go three heats the week before he goes to Lexington.” Meadowlands Pace winner Art Official is not eligible to the Little Brown Jug.

The George Teague Jr.-trained Badlands Nitro, who won the $538,270 Art Rooney Pace, is next at odds of 5-1. Sand Shooter, who won an elimination of the Meadowlands Pace, is 6-1 in the morning line. Sand Shooter is trained by Jim Arledge Jr. 

The future wager allows racing fans to bet early on all 3 year olds who are eligible to the Little Brown Jug. The minimum bet is $2 and all future wagers are win betting only.

Future wagering will be offered at Tioga Downs, Vernon Downs, Racing and Gaming Services, Inc., Harrington Raceway, Hazel Park, Penn Gaming’s Telebet and Ebetusa.com, Raceway Park, TRNI, Youbet.com and Plainridge Race Course. 
Complete past performance lines for all Jug eligibles will be available free of charge on the Little Brown Jug official web site.

A team of six racing analysts and handicappers selected the group of 23 colts and geldings. Each colt was then assigned odds based on the selection order.  The horses in each of the three future wagering pools are listed in alphabetical order.

The rest of the 3-year-old horses were packaged together into one “field” wager. The field will open at 7-1 odds. Every 3-year-old colt in North America is included in the field because if a colt wins the Cane Pace he can be supplemented into the Little Brown Jug. 

Tell All, who won the 2007 Little Brown Jug, paid $18 in the first pool; returned $28.20 in the second pool; and paid $8.60 in the third pool.
