Horse racing: Well Said wins Little Brown Jug


Associated Press

DELAWARE, Ohio — Well Said won the $609,150 Little Brown Jug, the second leg of the Triple Crown for pacers, on Thursday at the Delaware County Fairgrounds.

Well Said came from behind on the rain-soaked half-mile track, catching If I Can Dream in the homestretch to win by one length in a time of 1:51 4-5 for the mile and paid $2.40, $2.10, and $2.10.

Straight Shooting finished third.

Well Said, driven by Ron Pierce and trained by Steve Elliott, won for the 11th time 13 races this season.

Nineteen 3-year-old pacers entered the Jug and were split into two elimination heats. If I Can Dream won the first elimination while Well Said took the second elimination.
