The opportunity to lead the post parade for the first heat of the Little Brown Jug with Foiled Again has just been added to the September 19 Pre-Jug Party Charity Auction at the Delaware County Fair.
The offering is for one person sharing a double-seated jog cart with the driver as they parade the first heat of the Little Brown Jug.
Foiled Again is on his farewell tour before retiring as the richest horse in harness racing history with earnings in excess of $7.5 million. The annual Pre-Jug Party auction generates thousands of dollars each year to benefit the New Vocations Racehorse Adoption Program and the Delaware County Fair.
“Foiled Again is the classiest, wisest, most accommodating Standardbred I’ve ever met,” said New Vocations Executive Director Dot Morgan. “I was privileged to spend three days with him at Breyerfest, and I was astounded at his personable, kind temperament and total professionalism.
“We are thrilled to be able to auction off this once-in-a-lifetime experience with the proceeds benefitting retired racehorses. I’d like to express my deep appreciation to Burke Racing, Weaver Bruscemi and JJK Stables for this exciting donation.”
If leading the Little Brown Jug post parade with Foiled Again would be your dream come true, email Dot Morgan at [email protected] or text to 937-205-4667 to get a party invitation.
