Since the Little Brown Jug first raced in 1946, numerous sophomore pacing champions (and eventual Triple Crown winners) circled the Delaware, Ohio, oval in dominating fashion. But which one posted the single greatest performance on Jug Day?

Hoof Beats has selected what we think are the 16 most impressive wins in Little Brown Jug history, and we need your help in determining the best. Every three days from May 23 until July 16, we will pit two Jug champions against one another. Your vote will help determine which of the two will advance to the next round.

After the final poll has concluded, Hoof Beats will tally the votes. The full results and completed bracket will appear in the September issue of Hoof Beats.

To help jog your memory, we have compiled videos and race summaries for each of the contestants. Jug fever begins earlier every year, so get ready to cast your vote for the greatest Jug performance of all time, courtesy of Hoof Beats magazine and its Web site, www.hoofbeatsmagazine.com!
