"You know, I'm not a fan of heat racing but yes, I think I'm probably going to have to race him in the [Little Brown] Jug. If he's ever going to go to sire, the Americans would like to see him in the Jug, that's for sure."

On today's episode of Trot Radio we speak to Jim Carr, the owner of the fastest two-year-old in the history of harness racing Big Jim. Carr and Trot Radio's Norm Borg discuss how Big Jim would get around a half-mile track, the roadmap for returning in 2011, could we see Big Jim race as a four-year-old, how his two-year-old Camluck brother compares and why Carr supported the Racing Development & Sustainability Plan.

Big Jim is a finalist in this Saturday's O'Brien Awards in the Two-Year-Old Pacing Colt category along with Mystician.
